Door panel removed using instructions.



The door panel removal instructions are perfect, locating bolt #8 was a bit difficult because it was hidden behind the material but that might just be my vehicle. I am posting some pictures of the door panel removed and the tool kits I used to remove it. During the final process of lifting the panel off the seal I caught one of the white plastic fasteners in it's hole and broke it off I replaced it with a black after market fastener rather than search for and order the OEM part, I confirmed it will fit and latch into the hole on the door but it is a tad bit loose (personal decision). I reused the small round rubber gasket on the new fastener to avoid any rattles or other strange noises. Hopefully the pictures and notes will help someone out before they try to remove this panel. :nerd::nerd:
