Does anyone know what size Phillips head screwdriver I'd need to get out the door hinge screws on a 74 Beetle? The biggest one I found at Bunnings was a No.3 which looked woefully inadequate.

Cheers

Don't use an impact set to remove door screws, it will move the door post and the door gaps will never be the same. not to mention stuff the door screw.

Use the correct size screwdriver with a good torque grip handle, (Autopro sell them) this will get most tough screws out, if that doesnt work drill them out and retap the thread.

You need a Number 4, there around but you have to go to a good tool place.
I read it on FACEBOOK so it must be true
