Any shortcuts or other valuable hints when removing my drivers side door panel? I have a loose connection in the window control that makes me tap the door pretty hard to get the window to come up.
How does it come off?
Regards, Jim

 

I replied in the other door panel post about this-- check it out.

Also- just to let you know, the window thing is a common problem with the 350z. If your car is still under the 36k mile warranty, I would go to a dealership and get it fixed under warranty. I just got mine fixed at 26500 miles, no charge to me.

 

- the foamy piece comes out by pulling it from the back (the side opposite of the control piece).
- unscrew the screw that holds the control piece, then that comes out.
- you will see two bolts i believe that are inside after removing those two pieces, remove those.
- By the door handle, pull back the door handle, pull out the little plastic cover (it pops out) and you will see a screw there as well, take that out.
- Unclip the door panel from all around the sides.
- Once everything is unclipped, pull up and take it out.

When I removed my door panels, I didnt remove the screws in the armbar and behind the door handle and they still came off. Are you sure this is necessary?
