Well, I cloned the studleveler and welded some needle nosed vise grips to it to grab the studs and pulled on the long handle and massaged the surrounding metal with a body hammer. It amazes me how the door panel really wants to go back to original contour with just a little persuasion. I didn't buy a stud welder. I TIG welded pre-cut lengths of tig wire to the panel instead. I put a 1 foot square piece of plywood under the foot of the studleveler to prevent creating more dents to pull. You can Google studleveler to get a better idea of what I am talking about.
