Hey hey.

Over the last few days I've taken all of the interior panels out and cleaned them, save for the door panels. How hard would it be to pull these guys off, scrub them with simple green, and put them back on? I think I'll have to do it sooner or later, as I belive I need new microswitches in the locks anyhow...

Thanks!

It's really easy. All you have to do is take the door handle trim out, unscrew a screw or 2, take the armrest out, then it pops right out. Pull it up to pop it out. It's easy!

Take out the 2 screws that hold the bottom of the armrest, gently pry out the power mirror control, there's 1 screw behind there also. Unplug the power mirror control. Gently pry off the panel pulling it outwards. You can even do it with your hands. There are about 8-10 clips that are around the edge of the panel.

Once its unclipped, unscrew the door lock pin, and lift the panel straight up.
