[TR] TR6 door pins

[Dave]

Needle nose pliers work, too but the hemostats can be locked onto the pin and that is one less thing to deal with.  I guess the springs will keep the panel tight against the handle but I've never had a problem with slack panels w/o the springs.  I think that iff the panels were slack without the springs the springs would not present a problem.

Thanks, sounds like I need a hemostat. I'm trying to put the springs back in. I figure they had to be there for a reason...

A pair of hemostats helps.  You have to push the panel and the black plastic escutcheon (disc) in far enough to expose the hole in the handle shaft and insert the pin.  That's where the hemostat comes in.

Also, I ditch the spring behind panel.

Ok, it has been years since I've had the door panels off my car. I just got done
doing some work on them and I can't get the stupid handles on!  What is the
trick?!?  HELP!
