hey guys im currently stripping the vn to paint and saw it has pins that hold the doors on how you get these out or off? if it a simple smack with a hammer or is their a method?

if removing all 4 i suggest going to get a pin removal tool form supercheap repco etc will save you lots of stuffing round
I tune the oldschool way fear on the passengers face and knuckle colour cant go wrong

Well, you're wrong.
if you can be bothered screwing around, use flat nose pliers and a hammer, WD-40 all pins, and then tap them out by grasping before the flare with the pliers and tapping it out. The top ones easier because gravity helps you knock it down. Took me 45 minutes using that method to tap the bottom out up. Keep the rear doors shut when removing them and access it by opening the front door, helps if its a once man job.

get the right tool.. should take 10 minutes to remove all 4 doors...
wicked so its called a door pin removal tool?
yeah im pretty sure thats what it is
Make sure that the pin removal tool is of a similar diameter to the pin you hope to remove. Too big and it won't fit into the pin hole. too small and it's likely to break or bend.
Well, you're wrong.
it actually has a aprt number, if you go on supercheap and search parts for your car in their parts finder, i think its in the miscellaneous category. Be careful bashing it with a hammer, my dad took a shot at it and whacked off my courtesy lamp switch, now it doesnt work
oh shit lol yeah ill head down this week and see what they got the shops in nz pretty shit for those sorts of things but we'll see cheers
well went to repco and supercheap neither have it useless nz stores so... hammer and screwdriver it is lol
Well, you're wrong.
pliers* haha, just be very careful when you whack it. 4 doors... i feel sorry for you
if you dont know how to take the doors off well i dont think you should be touching a commy,the doors are real easy to take off
Only one way to learn.
yeah im used to doors with bolt on brackets im sure ill manage
