Step 1: Remove the Door Panel
There are only 3 actual
screws in the entire door panel. They are located:
1-
Just
behind the main inner door handle (what you grab to
close the door from the inside)
2 - In the inner door
handle (opening latch)
3 - At the front top of
the door (small black plastic screw)
Remove all of these and
set them aside for later use.
At this point you can
also remove the OEM speaker covers. In case you're not
familiar with them you simply pry lightly behind the
outer edge and they pop right out.
Now you're ready to
pull out the door panel - but note that you MUST help
negotiate the door handle out of the door panel before
the panel can be removed. Remember to be nice to the
door handle - they're notorious for breaking easily.
Grap the door panel
through the opening where the speaker cover was
removed. Give it a firm yank and the door panel will
pop off. Dont worry as the panel just pops back on
when you're done.
Help the door handle
through and then the rest of the door panel just pulls
UP and off. You must pull it up first as the panel
hangs from the top of the door.
BEFORE YOUR LET THE
DOOR PANEL DOWN - be sure to unhook the connectors for
the electric windows from the inside of the door
panel. |
