i had a friend throw up in my truck over new years i was wondering how to take the door panel apart to clean behind it. Thanks for yer help

 

Some friend! I'd make him figure out how to get it off and make him clean it up. When I was in my teens, the dealer I worked for wanted me to clean up a bunch of puke that a company rep did in a factory car. Said I'll clean it up when I puke in there, not until then. They cleaned it up. Nothin like cleanin up somebody else's puke.

 

front and rears are basically both the same, pop off off the plastic piece running up the window, it just pops out. pop out the window switch part and remove all the harnesses from the switches. remove the bolt hidden behind the switch and the one behind the plastic trim piece u pulled off. remove the 3 (or 4?) at the very bottom on the door.

i think there is also one behind the handle on each door. youll see right in behind it is a little black rectangle with a notch missing, i think u pry that out and there another bolt in there.

and for thee front door the speaker grills come out with a little prying, so there might b a few bolts in behind that. the rear speaker grills do not pry out so dont try (i did and its not pretty).

once all the bolts are out you have to lift up on the panel and then pull it away from the door. youll see the hooks on the back and understand how it works once u get it off.

and i find it easier to put the panel back on with the lock unlocked (in the highest position.) just a personal preference.

good luck.

 

thank up that will be a big help
