Passenger Door Panel
How do you get the passenger side door panel off. Not the entire thing but just the part that covers the speaker as i want to get at the speaker(it crackles) Do i just pull on it or is there screws somewhere? this is on a 2nd gen.

RE: Passenger Door Panel
I never took mine off my Talon (2nd gen) However, If its anything like the 3rd gen you have to take of whole panel should only take about 15min each goodluck!

You remove the screws and then pull... it should pop off. Dont forget there is a screw in the hood handle thing (where you stick your hand to pull the door shut) under a plasic flap

RE: Passenger Door Panel
Yes, the entire door panel needs to come off in order for you to get to the speakers. The speaker grills have tabs that are melted at the ends to hold it on. You can pry it off but you will screw up your door panel trying to pry it out....and that's just ghetto, take your time and remove all the screws around the panel (4-5) and 2 on the door handle. Pry the panel from the bottom rear (because there's enough room to stick you fingers [flathead] in there for grip). Don't just pull it straight out either, especially if you have electric locks/windows or you'll get a surprise.

RE: Passenger Door Panel
Yeah make sure you hold onto the panal when you remove it.. or you could end up pulling it out of it.... i have pulled them off before too.
You didnt know that the whole thing came off? Oops sorry. The previous owner tried to pry the front off to get to the speaker... what an idiot. |
RE: Passenger Door Panel
I forgot I had a how-to on removing the door panel bookmarked bro...here you go.
http://www.redefinedrides.com/panel.html While you're there, you might as well tighten down the window nuts/bolts. If they aren't already, your windows will start to rattle against the hardware (with the window in any position [up or down]). Here's the link for that, it also shows you how to remove the door panel. http://www.dsmtalk.com/forums/showth...threadid=90915 |
