Re: DASH AND CONSOLE PANELS REMOVAL: Instructions w/ pics

Continued from Post #2:


Front door panel
Interior door accent panels
Rear half-door panel
Driver side dash-top storage box




Front door panel (passenger side shown):

Pop open the plastic cover tabs and remove the two Phillips head screws beside the door release handle and below the door pull handle.






Remove the plastic snap retaining plug from the forward section of the door panel. (In the same manner as described for the switch panel removal.)




Pull (unsnap) the door panel by pulling out on the forward lower corner.




Pull (unsnap) the door panel by pulling out on the rearward lower corner.




Pull the entire door panel up approximately an inch to clear the window jam ledge.







Interior door accent panels (driver side door shown):

After the removing the plastic door panel from the door . . . .




. . . . flip it around to the inside where you'll see three Phillips head screws (indicated by the red arrows).




Remove the three screws and push through the 8 plastic retaining clips.




The accent panel can now be pulled off the face of the door panel.

Half-door panel removal:

Savvyav came up with a half-door interior panel panel procedure.

How to remove half door inner panel





Driver side dash-top storage box:

Remove the two Phillips head screws inside of the storage box (front and left).






Grasp the lid where it meets the hinges at the rear of the box, and pull upward until it unsnaps. (Note: This will require one hand on each side and some substantial effort to pull it up and out.)






Slide the box slightly aft until the front retaining lips clear the dashboard.





Re-installing all of the above is simply the reverse procedure of the removal.
