Thread: Need help Removing A door B13 Door Panel

Hey fellas. Well some dick broke into my car last night. Shattered my passenger window. Once again I was left with the feeling of wanting to murder somebody but not having a person to take that anger out on. Now to rebuild. I need to take off the door panel to replace the window.

How have you guys taken off the door panel? I don't see any problem until i get to the window crank.

hey fellas. I found some info on the web that I'm sure answered my question. Just adding the links to this forum.

Not b13's but I do believe the methods will work for me.

i should have searched the net before removing them in the parts car. i thought the window cranks came off just fine...then the person i sold them to said they were broken so i shipped him some more parts at my expense for free. moral of the story is always search, just as you did. i removed them from my b14 using the pick method shown in one of your links. it worked great for me

that fukcing cilp took me 1 hr per door to get it off!!!!i was so pissses then i just used a paperclip.....

take a rag and wedge it between the handle and the door panel.Then pull it back and forth the clip will catch in the rag.Takes like thirty seconds that way.

it took me maybe a minute to pop it off with a torx safety bit.

i used the safety bit because it has an indent, and it won't slide around.

the hardest part was getting myself into a position to see and do it with a flashlight, and the pick.
