Hi,
I have a small crease mark in the lower part of the drivers door that looks to have been put there my some nice individual in a supermarket car park
Can anybody advise me in the disco 3 is easily dent repairable by one of these mobile units, or are the doors a real pain to get behind. I'm near Darlington in Co Durham, any recommendations??
Thanks 07 SE in Java, lovin it too!!

I think they should be OK
I had one on another car that looked impossible to get to (right on crease, just under top of main body of door) - guy drilled a tiny hole in door shut, achieved a great repair then filled hole with bung - which I then rustproofed - impossible to tell

I have had quite a few dents removed by a dent devil type man and he usually does not need to get behind the door to remove them! he uses plugs that are glued to the panel and then pulled with a slide hammer, as well as mirrors and a plastic pin-punch of some sort to knock the dent out!
None of the ones I have had removed have been visible afterwards! 2014 D4 XS

Just had a load of dents caused by other doors taken out of my daughters Pug 206 by a Dent devils guy. First class job, absolutely clean lines, no drilling, just down via the window slot. Looks like a different car now.

used them a few times now & they are very good....especially here in West Yorks
suppose it depends on the operator....
from what I have seen they work from the back on doors without removing any of the trim panels
very clever how they get in
& the last dent they took out of my Disco door was the rear right at the very front edge BREXIT - done properly.

You can buy the plugs that glue to the dented panel from Halfords for about £20.
Not sure how good they are but you glue to the dent and pull! SOLD - 23my Range Rover Sport D300 Dynamic SE
