Removing R33 drivers door panel...

[Redbaboon]

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone can help me with some wisdom on how to remove the drivers door panel of my R33.

So far I have removed all screws from the bottom, and unclipped all of the gromits, but I think there is still another screw somewhere behind the window switch control panel.

I can remove the plastic finger handle from the door, but am unsure how to take the plastic window switch control panel off - I don't want to force it in case I break the bastard!

Does anyone have any tips on how to get this panel off?

Thanx in advance...

use a bit of force .. but not too much ... this has been covered lots in the car audio section ..

have u poped out the round plastic cover inside the plastic thing that u put ur hands in to close the door....there is a screw there. other than that it should be ready to pull of. it is abit hard to get off as the top part of the door trim wedges up on the part where the mirror is but it does come off. as for the switch control pannel theres two clips one at the end where the buttons are and one in the middle...this is where u should hold to pop it out so u dont crack anything.....there are no other screws so if u take off the door trim this control cover will come with it......have fun!!

crowbar

Thanks heaps!

I did get the screw out from under the handle thingy, but didn't know where the clips were for the switch panel...

That wasn't too painful - would have used a crowbar but I'm scared that I might snap the crowbar.

Thanx again lads.
