quarter panel removal

[Huw Powell]

The headlight/trim/bumper of course must be taken off first...

there are those screws on top, three (I think) at the bottom front of
the fender, and three more inside the wheel well facing rearwards, into
the A pillar.  Gotta pull the wheel well liner to get to those, and they
will be buried under rustproofing.  There is sometimes one more right at
the base of the windsheild, maybe...

Then it just a matter of gently prying up the top edge where it is
super-gooed to the body.  go slow, heat helps, cutting tools like putty
knives can help but you don;t really want to scratch things so go easy
with them.
