Your first job is to remove the cir-clips from the hinge pins, then take out the bolt that holds the door check strap, this will allow you to open the door a little wider so you can pull the rubber casing out of the door post which carries the wiring, unplug this then with some to help lift the door off the hinge pin, no need to tap out the pins.

Door strap first
Bolt removed and set to one side safe
Tease out the wiring plug from the door jam
Then pull out a little more
Next remove the two circlips and put safe with the bolt
with both clips remove from the pins the door is almost ready to be lifted free from the car
Your next step before removing the door is to unplug the wiring by pressing in the tag
This will allow the to sections to part
wiring loom parted, strap bolt removed and circlips removed the door is ready to be lifted free off it's pins and away from the car
Lift the door carefully of the pins get some one to help if you can if not make sure you have a good grip and maybe some old carpet or blanket to rest the door on as soon as you remove I used my feet
Same procedure for the front door as for the rear door

Good luck Arctic
