Default 36 deck lid removal,

i would like to remove my 36 coupe trunk lid to do some work on the inner frame / stamping. whats the best way to undo it? remove hinge pins and retain the fit, or do i have to take out all 6 bolts per side? thank you for any help, kurt.

I would recommend removing the pins to keep the alignment of the deck lid.
