I cannot get a socket wrench on the three nuts under the door to get the door card off.
Anyone know the size of the nuts? The nuts are also not central in relation to the access holes and need to go in at an angle.

Car is in for service, so can't check, but seem to remember they are 1/4. Hmm. Maybe.

Yep Richard, with the aid of a torch and a mirror estimated they are 10mm bolts. Think a cheap set of Draper box spanners will do the job.

Terry - get a cheap socket set with a small extension bar.

They're not usually on tight anyway.

You need to gently ease the card out when the bolts are off.

Much easier than my Chim I can tell you!

Enjoy.
