lifting up and out door card
« on: 11 August 2010, 09:40:25 »

Have removed all the screws from the door but when i try to lift it up to un hook it from the top of the door frame under the windon can not get it to lift out.

Any tips , was giving it some but did not want to over do it incase i damage something.

Thanks

Are you sure you've removed the 'secret' screw in the facelift guide?

Should be able to thump it with the palm of your hand at the bottom.

Funnily enough I have just done this today to get at my door strap.
I found it was just held extremly tightly on the top edge. It was a case brute force with a lot of care.

But I did make sure all cables and screws where disconnected first.

provided the door card will angle out at the bottom to get a good grip on the bottom edge it is just a case of lifting the card directly up. Some brute fource is needed, and you may find the black clip strip will break away from the door card. Glue and short self tappers fix that.
