Garage
I'm doing this just now.
To remove retaining bolts be sure to use a triple square m8 bit or you will damage nut heads.
Also, before removing the strikers check spaces and alignment of the doors, i mean spaces and height, if they are ok mark them with a felt tip pen.
Then mark the position of the striker using the same pen: this will guide you when you willl mount rebuilt strikers.
One last suggestion: when you remove bolts, start with unscrewing both just a little, then remove completely just one of them, turn the striker a bit and plug the removed bolt to the nut, now completely remove the second bolt.
This will aviod retaining nuts to fall on the floor of the garage avidiong to waste time when remounting
Hope this helps
