Hi All,

I want to remove the catch on chassis the door mechanism connects to, but having alot of trouble with the weird ass bolts that look like allen key but not 3 of them any helpful tips?

Cheers in advance Drew

Which Alfa are we talking about?

GTV ALFETTA 83

The standard bolt is an Allen head. Could very well have been rounded by someone previously. I had to remove four doors from two 83 Alfetta GTV's and of the 24 bolts, at least 6 required 'special' removal tools i.e. hammer and chisel or drill.
