Has anyone had any experience transplanting roof skins?
Have just removed my own roof skin, and my experience is that a 9mm drill will remove 9 out 10 spot welds, some places you would need a 10mm drill.

It's easy to remove the skin, I have just updated my project.
 http://www.aeu86.org/viewtopic/project-f...686#152686 As a chisel, I used a painters filler plate, this way. you can get between the plates, without damaging the plates.  ![[Image: AEU86 AE86 - Has anyone had any experien...oof skins?]](http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/802/1669588708427sparteliso.jpg/ "AEU86 AE86 - Has anyone had any experien...oof skins?")

Thanks for that bud, I probably will. I've got some other work to do before tackling the roof skin. I have to strip down and remove some windows from one car without damaging any of the plastics, which is always fun.
