Just spoke to the company that will be blasting my e30.

They would like the doors to have their innards removed. I'm happy to do this. But the guy said, as he owns an e30, he has done this himself in the past and said it's not a nice job. Rivets needs to be drilled out and what not.. I was wondering if anyone knew of a guide for this job. Struggling to find one.

Cheers.

it's like one of the glass bottle puzzles! Seems impossible to remove!
