    remove outside door panel

    Anyone know how to remove that plastic outside door panel
    with the Torx screws on it ?
    (Ya know that hard grey plastic that goes all around
    the vx?)

    I mean it cant be just as simple as removing
    those torx 30 screws ?

    Can it ?

    Didnt try it yet...but have to replace the drivers side.

    Cant tell whats holding the bottom together ?
    I mean the top has the screws....but something
    else gotta be holding the bottom there...somehow ?

    Anyone take this part of yet ?
    Or replace this piece yet ?

    The panels that I've removed all were held on by Torx bolts or phillips screws and double-sided tape. The tape is pretty hard to pull apart. Haven't taken apart the door yet, though, so your on your own on that one.

    Question still no one?

    I tried to find an answer to this question by searching but still came up empty. Surely by now someone can enlighten me. Also does anyone know where I might be able to purchase some more of the screws that I assume hold on the cladding in some way. Thanks.
    In Christ,

    Bring it to the meet tomorrow and I'll help you get it off. The Torx screws can be ordered from St. Charles.
