Porsche 911 Carrera Rear-decklid-deck-lid Strut-Shock Replace-Repair

[@bontchin]

I face the same "pins removal" problem with my 911. I opened the hood as far as I could, clamped the shaft of the strut-shock near the fat part with a vise-grip. This allowed me to wiggle the hood to easily remove the pins with my hands..

This guy made squeezing a pimple look like brain surgery! This repair is so simple and no need for anything but a small straight screwdriver. Those clips simply slide on and lock into place by hand. What he was doing with the piece of wood is beyond me! You can insert the pin and apply the clip with one hand. No tools necessary. It took me all of 10 minutes to replace both of them. And I have never attempted this before.
