there should be a couple rivets holding the hinge onto the car. it would be easier to drill those out than it would be to try and get the hinge rod out.

on mine there were a couple bolts that went through the 1/4 and were held on by a couple nuts on the backside (7mm or 10mm, not sure what...)

Everything else on a cavy is 7mm, so thats prolly what it its, i dont think i've ever used a 9mm on my car. Not saying your wrong since i have no idea what it is, im just saying ive never seen a 9mm, mostly 7 and 10.... But this IS GM were talking about so theres no telling.
