Need Early 911 door panel removal help
I am trying to remove the door panel from an early 911 door. I am stuck on a bolt which holds the door pocket in, and is only accessible from the back. I have circled it in green in the pictures below. Does anyone know what size socket the nut takes? That would be a great help. I can only feel for it with my hand, and on top of that, I can't find all of my sockets right now.

I believe that is a 10mm nut, and a socket works best. The nut is in a depressed area of the sheet metal, so a wrench tends to interfere with the surrounding sheet metal.

Just been there, done that. What Mike said regarding a socket. A deep 10mm on a 1/4" drive ratchet works best in the limited amount of room.

Borrowed a socket set from my brother in law and 10 mm it was. Thanks, Mike and dafischer.
