merckx Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 Screws near the hinge, pull off the caps first. Screws along the bottom edge of the door. Screw behind door open handle . Where you pull to close the door, lever off cap- screw There is also some rivet push fittings, various positions. Push the centre pin *in* and then pull the whole thing out http://img158.exs.cx/img158/9466/rivet6jj.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 Use a blade to lever out centre pin before pulling out whole thing. http://img158.exs.cx/img158/9466/rivet6jj.jpgActually you're supposed to push the centre pin *in* and then pull the whole thing out.

Jake Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 That's what I said! That might be what you meant but it's not what you said. You said Use a blade to lever out centre pin I just mentioned that the centre pin should be pushed in rather than levered out because Peter would have a hard time trying to lever them out.

Never thought of pushing them in , wasn't obvious . It does make it a bit easier! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted January 10, 2005 Share Posted January 10, 2005 They come out much easier that way and they don't break or get marked by the tool you tried to lever them out with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jspec Germany Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 Need a little how-to advice fellas. I am about to replace the mirror (glass only) on my drivers side. What's the process for removing the glass only? Do I just pry from the edges with a screwdriver? Is it one of those molded plastic backings fitted into the unit? Thanks.

SupraTRD_MK4 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 (edited) Okay so I got new door panels for my car which I am replacing my customized ones with. They are lighter and look better oem then these customized ones. I need the part number for the screw in front. They are two only which have the washer spaced on them for the plastic cover to fit over. If anyone has any photos of their door panels and all the screws it would be nice to see. I am also after a driver side door handle lever mounting plate, the steel plate with the 3 plastic grommets that hold the inner door handle lever to it. I have seen the other post and see there is a screw holding the door handle bezzel as well as a screw inside somewhere behind that once removed. I will see when I fit that. I have fitted the left panel but as mentioned need 1 of those special screws with washer. I also don't have the big black plate and small silver one that enable the door arm rest to mount to for both sides. Anyone have these lying around for me? Please help someone:search: Edited December 12, 2018 by SupraTRD_MK4 (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
