38TRY Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Hi, everyoneI was trying to find the same topic but can't find any.Does anyone know how to remove the door panel for my ZRE?I tried yesterday and found it is weird because i have no idea which part should i pull out first and i am scared to break it.Please take few step by step pictures, if you can! Thank you very much!BTW: If someone in BNE knows how to take it off, i might just come to your place and learn how to do that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJKOR Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Not a definite answer but this may send you in the right direction.For most doors I've come across, firstly you take off the trim that is on the grab handle part of the door. Under there you should find a couple of screws you need to undo.Then you will find another screw in the door handle section. Usually there is a plate behind the handle that the screw hides behind.After that, you can use your hands and starting from the bottom, you pull the trim away from the door to disengage the numerous clips that are around the trim. Then you can lift the door trim upwards to take it off the door, paying attention to the door handle cable and other electrical wires there.

flipsta24 Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 (edited) 1. silver handle unclips off be very careful though as it scratches really easily 2x screws2. there's a little cover under the door handle that also unclips, be very carful with that aswell as they scratch really easily 1x screw3.with a bit of force start from the bottom right corner of the door and slowly just start pulling the trim towards (it may be hard at first but just give a i little)4. unplug the window control loom3 screws in totalshould be it from what i can recall, sorry i didnt really take any pics of it when i was doing it i think i should from now on when i pull something apart and put it back together.the majority of all doors are all clips i took mine off the other day to find out the factory speakers are actually pop riveted into the doorsCharlie Edited October 18, 2009 by flipsta24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hawk Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 3.with a bit of force start from the bottom right corner of the door and slowly just start pulling the trim towards (it may be hard at first but just give a i little)Please correct me if i'm wrong but I think that should be - the bottom corner opposite the hinge... Depending on driver or passenger door.Rivets??? Really?? I suppose most people wouldn't change the factory speakers so would make sense from manufacturing point of view.

SHIRE.ZRE Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Step #1 should be to remove the inner weather seal that is attached to the top of the door trim. It unclips and not being held by any screws. Just lift it up gently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
38TRY Posted October 20, 2009 Author Share Posted October 20, 2009 (edited) Ray89...sorry i did it today already...saw your reply until then..lol It actually pretty easy. Thx guys for the help. I have took some pictures of my work. Here we go. Unscrew these two screws on the door handle unscrew this one behind handle you open the door Pull from the bottom of the door trim, not the strip! lol And its done! I also took out the panels surround the headunit. This is for my iPod cable Pull out the glove box and you can reach the existing iPod AUX input. Here we go~ Its not a big job and i believe everyone can do this. All you need is 2 screw drivers, one + and one - Enjoy. Terry.
