erm it\'s kinda that theory the dent removal places use but is a bit more complex than just whacking a standard plunger on & all is well but i guess it may work......
Dont think there\'s any dent tech type places that local but i did have a chaps number i used on my scooby years back sumin like £50-70 (i cant remmeber now) to take all dents out of any panel..)
Is amazing watching them do it a proper art if you ask me (/philestein mode off)

It\'s amazing what they can do.
even a dent which is above the double walled wheel arch, they drill a little hole inside the wheel arch to get to it!-I think there\'s so much you can do to try and save a bit of dosh, but bodywork isn\'t one of them!:p
