ok there are 3 screws on the bottom of the door trimming...

one more once you have pull out the plastic coverings that contains the mirror switches...

and door handle cover need to be removed... I think there is one screw there too.

once you take off the plastic cover off from arm rest then it sould be it, just matter of using gentle but firm grip and take them off...

take off from bottom and lift Ifind that's the easiest way, and put it back on clip the top then bottom

I hope this helps ya

if this is 1st time you might have problems, just carefull you not breake any plastic while you doing this.

cheers

thanks joe. already got it done. was a bit worried coz i didn't want to break any of the plastic, especially the part where it surrounds the controls for the windows etc. but in the end i got a bit fustrated and used more force and it came out. there is one screw behind the door handle cover, that cover was a biatch to remove until i realised what was holding it in.

i was a bit surprised when i saw that i had some pretty decent looking Carrozeria pioneer speakers in there. weird, i think they were 6", in the back i have the same brand in 6 x 9's. and my sound is very avg. i have a vdo head unit in. dunno why it sounds so bad.

it would've helped, but i already took it off and then came in and read it hehe. i wanted to remove it because i was hearing this rattling noise coming from it. it also comes from the passenger side door as well. its really been annoying for ages but i just haven't done anything about until now.

it only started rattling after the alarm guy installed my alarm, so i figured the panels were a bit loose after he put em back on. i also have a clunking noise coming from the rear left which i can't work what it is. sounds like the jack is moving around but its not :)

      From when I was looking at getting the 86 engineered for the turbo, the joint said to put in a few euro 5 or 6 cats, then tune the car on a nice clean E85 tune When I was looking at a turbo for the MX5, it was basically the same thing, a couple of cats and a nice clean tune Although, it will depend on the year of the Jeep IRT emmisions standards required, and what mods are done, especially if it has a newer engine installed that requires a higher Euro

      Yeah - but it's not actually that easy. There are limits for HC, CO, NOx and particulates. Particulates shouldn't be a concern in any petrol engine unless trying to comply to the very latest Euro standard. But getting a tune right so that all the others stay within limits AT THE SAME TIME is not a trivial exercise. You couldn't possibly get it right by just guessing at the tuner's dyno, unless he had a 4 gas analyser up the pipe, which is not often the case these days. It used to be. Every decent shop that did "tune ups" (as opposed to tuning) would have a 4 gas analsyer. Perhaps there's still quite a few of them around these days. But most "tuners" are only watching O2 and power readings.

      Slight segway but the most expensive part of the whole thing which I would have thought would only be required for an engine size/type swap, not a VIV test, is emissions testing.  That's when you get into the big bucks.  I can't remember the exact price now but I got quotes for the GT-R based on swapping to RB30 (not that anyone bothers doing it legally anymore...) and it was around $4500 just for that alone.  The guy that does them manipulates the tune on the vehicle to make sure it passes.  The cheaper option is to book into Kangan Batman Tafe (I think that's where it was) and hire their tester.  Allegedly you're not allowed in there with the car though so not in a position to tweak anything to make sure the vehicle passes.  I'm sure in this day and age of ultra tuneable ECU's you could get the tuner to program a special efficiency (clean) tune that emits the lowest amount of particulates possible that would pass the test.  It might only make 50kW's but as long as it passed who cares!

      I'm sure he has left signs, or, he is looking down, laughing That's my cunning plan for when I leave, lots of half finished projects, with no rhyme or reason of where I was actually up to, just to keep everyone on their toes

      Does that price include the rack time to straighten the frame and body and replacement of parts and paint, as well as the noise and emmisions testing  The last engineering certificate I had done, albeit about 15 years ago, was around $1000 for a few inspections and the certificate
