[DML] Re: door to roof seal replacement?



You should probably be more afraid of drilling right through the top 
of the door as you drill out the old pop-rivets. I have used a piece 
of coolant hose to cover the torsion bar and put a wide blade putty 
knife down behind the pop-rivets as I drill them out. Now that I 
have a Dremel I believe I would use it to grind off the heads of the 
rivets next time. I suspect the old pop rivet heads will still be a 
pain to retrieve and I'll have to wait a few months while some roll 
around in the top part of the door before they roll down into the 
door where I can finally get them.
