Default Removing the doors and rear hatch

hey everyone,
Wondering if someone can tell me if the doors on the 97 CRV are mounted with a pin or do I have to take the hinge bolts off? Same for the rear hatch piece where the spare tire mounts.
My rear hatch was dented pretty good and the doors have rust, quicker to just swap them out and probably cheaper.

Going to head out to the pick-a-part for some stuff, but want to make sure I bring the proper tools

Anyone have a how to/diagram of this? Or pretty straight forward.

thanks

Hinge bolts would be the fastest way for the doors.. for the spare tire mount take off the panel on the tail gate youll see four bolts make sure you bring an extension with you easy as pie.

Easy to tell just by looking at it. Everything bolts on. Just have fun getting the rear tailgate lined back up. It'll take time.

Awesome thanks for the help. Looking at the rear hatch earlier and yeah it looks straight forward, but wanted to make sure I have the proper tools when I hit the pick-a-part this weekend.
