Well, somewhere down there my window tint is all scraped up, so i wanna take a look and clean it up and see if theres some sand or debris down there.

Are there just clips ?

screws ? hmmmm, i know theres 2 at the handle. not sure if its for that though.

Write up ? anyone ? (black arrow) hehe

Should be screws at the door handle. The rest should be all push clips. The christmas tree type.

What Herc said..pop out the window switch, remove the screws, and pull off the panel.

Buy the christmas tree clips before doing it. You will break some of them.

That's what your rear door panel look like. I use flat tool under the door panel for let me more room from my hand. I pull it off carefully as I can. I don't break any christmas tree clips.

Haha .. so this is relating to the topic .. sorry for stealing yo thread !!

My passenger door panel makes a noise as if a few of those clips are loose when my music is loud and the bass from that door's speaker shakes it. Some of them aren't tight could that be causing the rattling ?

Some of the clips are probably broken, Shane.

A few of them aren't really "snug" in their holders, could that be the cause as well as some broken ones ??
