This is my first post here so be gentle with me. I just ordered replacement trunk hinge pivots from JWest (last night actually) and since it is a beautiful day today I thought I would remove the old, wallowed out pivots. Since I haven't received them yet I am assuming I just need to drill out the spot welds. Anybody have any suggestions?

If you are lucky, the PO didnt get in there and get crazy with a regular welder and build up a bunch of new stuff to grind off. Both of my cars are that way and it is really a pain to get in there to grind it all off smooth. I will be doing that in the coming week or so to get mine installed. They are great hinges though and should out last the car.
