    I did the passenger side door on my 11 the same way jack did using a long punch to drive out the pins but the drivers door- just not happening! Well and truly rusted in solid... My check strap anchor points also completely gone now on the drivers side

    a hole punch is the way to get them started

    definately... I used a 10cm long 5mm (I think!) punch and it worked a treat on the passenger side; if not a little fiddly as you can't quite use the punch straight-on... Also the punch is the ideal size to knock out the double split pins in the drive shaft too...
