0 Rossocorsa Posted November 23, 2014 Report Share Posted November 23, 2014 (edited) If I was you I'd get a paintless repair guy in to do it shouldn't cost a lot and they have all the right gear to do a perfect job in most cases without taking the panel off too Edited November 23, 2014 by Rossocorsa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 alfaspud Posted February 11 Report Share Posted February 11 (edited) Anyone actually removed the door card? My internal handle has stopped opening the door so I have lower the window to open from the outside which is a pain in the arse. Presuming the linkage has come off between handle and lock. Any advice about taking the card off greatly appreciated Edited February 11 by alfaspud Clarification Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Deltamike Posted February 12 Report Share Posted February 12 Yes had mine off. Some screws behind little pop-off covers, I recall 1 behind the pull handle & a couple in the door pull pocket. Might be a couple along the base too. Pop the mirror & window switch out then lever the trim off round the edge with a prying tool. It’ll unhook by lifting up, mine was a rear one so the bit of trim up the window above it needed to be removed too. You should find the release lever cable is (or should be) attached with a clip, along with wiring to the small lamp above the release lever.

Does anyone know how to remove the door car so I can try to apply pressure from behind the ding in an attempt to smooth out?
