| Removal of inner door panel on D3 |
|
Hi all
I put a post up earlier in the week about removing the inner door panel to find and sort an annoying rattle...
Got v.quick response from BBS SPY:
"2 long screws towards the bottom, another under the airbag badge and one under a small plate behind the door open handle, Then you need to remove the cover off the door pull, it has some holes underneath you are supposed to use to free the two upper barbs but i never used them, just pulled it up while wiggling it till the barbs unclipped.
There are 4 screws under that, then pull the panel towards you with some force as there are a lot of clips around the edge. Watch out for teh one at the top of the tweeter bit. You could help with a flat lever but as you are against the painted metal you want to be careful not to scratch it.
When the panel comes away the cable for teh door open can be releaded by unclipping the barb and allowing it to lever out. when putting back be sure the roller at the cable end engages in the slot for it, of course there are a few electrical plugs of which the door switch ones are quite tight.
hope this helps"
...thing is, I have removed the screws at the bottom, and the screw behind the door pull (and pulled that out), but how does the airbag cover come away - and am I being too soft whit this as there is no movement whatsover with the panel yet???
sorry if I am missing soething, probably being over cautious 
Thanks in advance Les
