Look in the space where the door bolts to, there is a little cavity there to access the bolt. The door has to be open to get at it. Good luck.

You are thinking bumpsides......These are accessed through an opening in the A pillar.

The mid point cowl to fender bolt is in a opening on the kick panel just under the where the dash meets it. It may or may not have a cover with a single screw holding it in place.

You will need a long extension and a socket with a magnet or tape in it to retrieve the bolt. These often break the J nut due to corrosion. If this happens it holesaw time in the fender to access it.

I put a screwdriver between the fender and kick pannel from the outside to get mine off it worked pretty good no damage

You're right....they all run together after a while. I'm currently parting a slick, a bump, and a dent.
