    Default Door hinge and horn contact

    Hi guys,got a score on a compleat wagon for spares. Now turning my Toyota in to a Holden..

    How do you remove the door hing pins, do you knock them towards the center of the door or outwards. Mine wont budge.

    I need to replace the horn contact pin on the steering column, How do you remove the housing that it sits into? Looks like its held on by the top column shaft brng.
    Thanks..

    Best advice I can give: invest in a car manual. Will tell you how to remove them.

    Worked out the horn contact. Remove 2 white plugs top and bot on the outer column. Remove C clip from column,rotate assy ccw and pull unit out. Getting the C clip back on with out the shaft going back down by yourself is fun. Door hinge? 9' cutoff wheel..

    all I know is that you need a tool that can pull the pins out of the hinges and i think it uses the same concept as a dent puller.
