Default Little dents

So Ive got some dents in only my rear quarter panels on my TA. Was thinking of purchasing a auto body hammer and dolly set to try and tap these out... They are rather small and thinking I can do this myself...Is accessing the rear quarters easy from taking apart the hatch area? Curious if this is something I can do and any tips would be nice. Would just do the paintless dent method by we are on a budget to buy a house so doing this myself would save a lot.

Don't bother. Depending on location you will never get those tool between the outer skin and reinforcements. Take the money for dolly and hammer save a little more and have it done right PDR. I had one removed by a guy that goes to the local dealerships. 40 bucks 5 min and no dent

i got a quote to have like 5-6 taken out of my passenger rear 1/4 panel. They quoted me like $250 to do every little one i could find in the car which means i'll be going thru it with a fine tooth comb to find any in the hood, other 1/4 and the passengers one
