removing door panel
my driver rear door has been very sticky...it won't close properly, and needs to be slammed. I think the repetitive slamming has taken its toll on the interior components, and although WD-40 helps, its not a permanent fix. so today I started trying to take the door panel off, so I could try to fix it, or at least lube it from the inside.
I took all the screws out, and now I'm stuck. it looks like the 2 mounts on each end of the door pull are holding it on, but I can't find out how to take them off to pull the screw/bolt. pic time http://i.imgur.com/E0PaG.jpg this little thing http://i.imgur.com/cDzsF.jpg halp

There are covers on the end caps. Pry them off and you will see the screws holding them on. Unscrew the door lock **** to take it off and pull up on the door panel to take it off

what about putting it back on, just line it up and hit it with a mallet? |

^I took that off, but it's clearly stuck on something else by the window...let me check real quick
EDIT: its stuck. if it is just the pull-up clips, these are MUCH stronger than the other ones on the door Last edited by 1976Oldswagon; January 7th, 2012 at 06:36 PM. |
