Sorry for the crappy pics. Shot 'em fast for the sake of the question.
A member here (thanks Doug!) hooked me up with some good vent tubes/door handle recesses to replace the rotten ones in my car.  I'm cleaning them up and removing the sealer, etc. How are the oval ends of the tubes fastened to the inner ply? It appears there's an oval inside an oval (2 plys) if that makes sense. Are they spot welded together? Brazed? Friction fit?  I'm trying to get the oval end of the tube out of the inner skin while keeping the round end attached to the jamb end. |

I hit the oval lip a bit with a wire wheel and it didn't polish up like brass--it shined up like steel weld. And it is a bit thick and globby in places.
What's the best way to approach separation? Careful grinding/sanding? |
