How to Remove the Door Cards From A Mk3
Note
They are very straight forward, but before you try, I suggest that you visit your local dealer and get a few replacement covers for the screw in the mirror cover and also for the screws in the door levers.
Method
- Remove screw covers on mirror cover and door handle recess
- Using a credit card or flat blade screwdriver, push the inboard top edge of the door pull insert toward the door and remove.
- Remove philips screw from mirror cover, and remove mirror cover. It's held in with a spring clip at the top: just pull
- Remove TORX screw (T25) from door handle recess
- Remove philips screw (2 in front doors, 1 in rear doors) from door pull.
- Remove philips screws from around the door: 6 on front doors and 5 on rears.
- Remove the door card by lifting up and out. You'll need to remove the connector from the window switches - there's a locking tag to manipulate to get them to release.
Window switches are clipped in from behind, when you replace them make sure you get all clips to catch, as it is a real bugger to have to remove the door panel again when you haven't got one of them in and the switch starts dipping at the unsecured end. Also, don't forget to reconnect the electrical connector before replacing the door card.
