Deck Lid - Quick-Release Hinge Pins
Hi! My Empi brand Decklid Quick-Release Hinge Pins came today from Cip1.
Can someone please give me some simple instructions on how to install them?
Is it better to install them with the deck lid installed or removed?
I was going to spray some penetrating oil on them first.
Then gently tap them out enough to get a small pair of vice grips on the end.
Then hit the vice grips with a hammer to drive out the pin.
Is it best to sand the new quick release pins a little to make them a smaller diameter so they will fit in easier?
Any help is appreciated! JP 73vwbeetle
