A good PDR guy can get that out (as long as the metal isn't stretched). He would use the door striker hole or any other hole in the door jamb to access that dent with his PDR tools.

I hope it can be fixed. I have a small dent in the exact same place and was going to bring it in in the next few weeks. I'll let you know what happens. Mine is right on the crease in the fender so maybe that causes problems... Let us know what happens!

Thanks for quick reply.
Excuse my english but with "door striker hole" you meen the screw holes the door lock mechnism lockes to?
He said he did try that, but that his tool where to big? Is that the way to go through?
I hade my interior gone so he could get through the holes behind this but there he told me there were double plate and not accessible.

Thanks

It looks like it might be in the area of the seat belt retractor. which has a double plate and a hollow wall. . Pull the seat belt retract mech. and see if access is availible thru there. If the dent is in the spot where the two plates come together it will be hard to get out. Should have been hard to put there also. You can also drill a hole in the inner plate to access outer wall near dent. Don't give up yet. Look for another dent guy also. Never hurt to get a second opinion.

Did remove the seat belt retractor today. And went in to the PDR guy.
That hole works. Will turn the car in next Wednesday.
I realy hope he can fix it!

Will get back here when it's done.
Thanks for the advice Va.Stang

Where there's a will, there's a way...
Your guy could also very carefully, drill a 2 inch hole in the double wall to allow access.
