Sorry for the noobish question, but what is the easiest way to remove the hatch on the 240sx? I'm needing to replace my rusted craptastic hatch with a new one and just wanted to know the easiest way to do it without messing up the hatch dampers. Please do not flame either.

Thanks. :bigthumb:

Not sure if it is the best way but it worked for me.

1- unbolt dampers from hatch leave connected to car.
2- unbolt the hinges from the body
3- disconnect wires while pulling it up

Thats really the only way I know of. I would just do body work on the hatch. Works out well.
