[Shotimes] door handles

[Tim Dahm]

pound out rivit center pin with a 1/8" punch &hammer(it will need a
beating). Drill out remaining aluminum rivit with a 1/4" drill bit.
Nothing needs to be disconnected from inside the door (unlike the front
doors). The portion of the handle that goes into the door
will be a bit tricky to remove- try different angles, etc..    Door handle
should survive just fine.
