Door card removal

[Storer]

The search is still down so a little help please guys.

How do you get the door card off without breaking it? I need access to my drivers side door speaker.

There are about 8/10 allen screws...underneath, near the hinges and near the door catch. Thats it. Be careful not to yank it off as the connectors are still fastened....and of corse the the speaker cables. Make sure the connectors are clean before putting it back.

And watch out for some sealent along the top front edge - hinge side of the door. You may need to cut this.

And then dont forget to re-seal it again with more sealant!

Good job I decided to leave this job until tomorrow. It will give me chance to go and buy some sealant!

Alan will tell you the right stuff (as search is down) , but it's the B&Q silicone stuff?

I never came across any sealant....on either doors. Not heard anyone else mention any sealant before.

Do you get wet feet when you get into yours?

Mine has never let any water in. Its completely dry. Perhaps the sealant was an after thought because their cars were letting water in. I might be wrong.

Mmm..mine leaks AND ive got sealant on it! Bugger.

Admittedly, my cars garaged, and if its pi$$ing it down with rain, it doesnt come out (appart from chatsworth type events). However, it does get caught out in the rain and fingers crossed, its fine....unlike my wifes Z3. What a joke.
