Tools/Supplies Needed:
-nylon trim tool
-T25 torx driver
Procedure:
Using a nylon pry tool, remove the inner plastic portion inside the door handle behind the aluminum trim. Push the trim tool up from the bottom and pry out.
Again using the trim tool, go around the outer edge of the aluminum trim and pry upward to disconnect the clips.
Here you’re able to see the clips.
Disconnect the window switch electrical connector.
Using a T25 torx driver, remove the two screws where the door handle trim was.
With the tweeter speaker cover, this can be a bit tricky. The cover will either pop off or you’ll disconnect the clip in behind it. If you do disconnect the clip in behind, this is fine as it needs to be done to remove the door panel.
Now go around the perimeter of the door panel and disconnect the clips. Feed the trim tool between the door metal and door panel. I typically find it’s easiest to start with the corner first and work your way out. Once you have a section started, the rest should be a bit easier.
Along the window’s edge, there will be various clips that will disconnect much easier than the other clips found throughout the panel.
Push the lock down and then remove it from it’s location.
Unclip the cable for the door latch, then rotate it 90 degrees in the door handle mechanism and slide out of it’s location.
Disconnect the electrical connector for the power door lock switch.
And finally disconnect the final electrical connector for the tweeter speaker.
Here is a view on the door side, you can get a close up of the clip locations along with all the components in behind the panel. As you can see there is a clip still stuck in place up by the tweeter location, this will need to be removed and reinstalled back on the door panel.
Now a view on the backside of the panel. You can see the clip slots along the window’s edge, along with all the other clip locations. The reason for the door panel removal was trying to fix the speaker cover, but unfortunately there isn’t an easy solution for this. It’s molded to the door panel and I can’t glue a brace in behind without making a mess of the speaker mesh.
Remove any clips from the door side and reinstall back into the panel.
For installation, it’s basically in reverse of removal.
Connect the electrical connector for the door lock button.
Plug in the connector for the tweeter.
Reconnect the door latch cable, first onto the lever and then clip the cable back into place.
Push the door lock pull back into place.
And now snap the panel back into place. Make sure the clips are aligned with the holes and push them into place. Go around the perimeter of the panel, making sure it’s seated correctly.
Install the two T25 torx screws.
Clip on the aluminum trim.
Install the plastic cover behind the door handle.
And finally you’re done.
