[TR] TR6 door pins

[Greg Lemon]

Regardless of how the pins relate to your masculinity, as I recall when I had a lot of difficulty fitting them I was using the springs that came with the door handle kit from the roadster factory.  I think the next time I had to do it I reused my old springs that had lost a little tension after nearly fifty years (!!) and that made it much easier to install.

  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!
