My door pins (the pins that drop down into the brackets from the body, that connect the arm that goes into the door which prevent the door from opening passed a certain distance) are clicking badly when I open both the driver and passenger doors. It's a very loud click and I've had this happen on Civics before and all I did was replace the little pins. However, the s2000 pins are different and I'm not sure how to remove them... can anyone provide some insight?


pin removed on a civic:

 

Just grease it. It will stop clicking.

 

I tried white lithium, no dice. The pins need to be replaced.

 

how old's the car? maybe you can warranty it and have the stealership do the work

 

2002 AP1.

 

just yell out "YEAH BABY!" every time you open or close the door.
you'll never notice the click again.

 

Are they hammer-out pins? if one side is pointy smack it with a hammer and it will slide out.

 

They're not hammer out pins like Civics, that's why I'm not sure how to remove them. It's super loud on both sides because the pins are worn and have play. I'll take video and post it.

In the meantime, HELP!!

 

I'll take a look at mine today, and reference the helms.

 

Never mind: See my post below this one.

It -IS- a hammer out pin. There is a e-ring on each pin. It's #33 in the diagram. Remove it and beat the pin out. You'll have to replace them with junkyard parts, or buy the correct side to get the pin. They may not sell them separate.
