Interior Door Panel Removal.....

Any tips or tricks to removing the interior door panels, on both the front and rear doors?

Only thing I can suggest is take it easy so that you don't break the clips at the bottom of the door panel. Its only a few screws to pull the panel so its not that bad, just be wary of those clips.

They come off pretty easily.

Front: Remove the screw at the top of the panel, then I THINK there is one behind the door handle, then there are two at the bottom. Remove the torx screw that holds the door handle on, and it will slide right up.

In the rear, remove the torx holding on the handle, then remove the single screw, and lift.

Putting them back on is the tougher part.

Make sure you pick up to remove not just pull out. Lift first to pull the hooks out of the holes then pull. One cracked panel later I now remember this well.

I love this website, don't know how to do something, search and you will find it out.

somehow my child lock switch was activated and the outside door handle wasn't working, unable to open the door and needed to removed the panel. at least they made it so that it can be removed while closed.
