Haynes manual has a pic showing you where all the bolts are located-I think someone has posted this before, try doing a search.

Cheers

The only problem you might have is locating the wing to door post bolts to start with as they are covered with lots of sealer (providing they havent been replaced and not covered in loads of it).  I used a chisel and hammer to knock through it, chisel comes to an abrupt stop when it meets a bolt head, then start digging!.
