F6 Rear door removal

Hi folks…
The next job to do on my F6 is to get the rear door repaired.
Having found a local bodywork guy who will tackle it I just need to know how to remove it?
Thanks in advance Mike.

Would think its easiest removed by undoing hinges, top from inside van, bottom behind l/rear light, remove cluster to access, check strap remove circlip.
The back door on my van has had an off-van repairs made to it in the past, for this reason I am on the hunt for a good undamaged/repaired one as off vehicle pannel repairs often look perfect off of vehicle but when reinstalled the form/lines of panel may not match that of van, they are flimsy panels easily distorted with repairs, where rusted at bottom it has eaten factory line/fit, repaired off of van does not guarantee correct fit when reintalled as off van there are no panel gaps/fit to work to.

Thanks for the reply.
I did wonder if I needed a hinge pin removal tool or if it just unbolted?
The guy repairing the door is a classic car restorer and has done lots of fancy motors so hopefully he should get it spot on.
I don’t think Renault are renowned for there panel fit anyway!
