door removal

the bottom of my front and rear passenger doors (drivers doors to you over that side of the pond) have started rusting. does any one know if there a PITA to remove, is there a web site or a video showing how to do it, all I'm getting is how to remove the internal door cards, n stuff
what I'm thinking on is getting 2 doors and just swapping everything over , plus a upper tailgate too,
cheers

Steve

Steve,

I replaced the RR door in my 1998 528i few years ago.
There is a youtube video, a few bolts and the door comes out.
It is a bit tricky....so I posted the trick in post #4 in the thread below...
