RE: panel stuck at door - 5/1/2006 3:15:13 PM    sir_nasty Posts: 6309 Joined: 2/23/2006 Status: offline I'm assuming that you either missed a screw underneath the armrest (goes through the armrest and looks as if it holds the armrest to the door but it doesn't...) or there is just a plastic clip there.... Most likely there is a screw that goes down inside the "hand hold" in the door and has a plastic piece in there that needs to be popped out then the screw removed... can you take some pictures if this doesn't work?

Do you have e-mail account beside this one. this one only allows 500k. My pics are 1m and greater. (in reply to sir_nasty) Post #: 3

I'm almost positive that's what you're fighting... Option 2: that door handle (with the power lock switch) will rotate slightly and slip through the door panel if you like... then lift the panel up/off while sliding it through.
