Removal of door lock actuators
Hi all,
I did search and find a thread on this topic but they were simply able to pull the actuator off the bracket. My bracket broke and now I have to remove rivots and put new bracket back on (came with new actuator).
Is anyone aware of a thread or share with me how to replace the whole bracket. I have already drilled out the rivot but still can't seem to get the bracket removed on the inside.
Thanks,
Roland

a body shop trick is to use a 1/4x3/4 bolt and nut. Put the bolt thru from inside the bracket bolt head inside stick the bolt thru inside to outside of door and install nut and tighten. then cut bolt off flush with nut. No body will ever notice the difference and you don't have to break your arms installing the rivet........which is a pain in the arms and a$$.
