Hello John, I use a 1/2 drive hex key and a long 1/2 inch breaker 
bar with a jack handle to hold the bar in place while you attach the 
mount plate. When I was with Delorean we held the door up with a 2x4 
cut to length. Be very careful as it is easy to break a rear window 
or strip the nutserts for the mounting plate out of the abs. Good 
luck.
