Passenger side door panel removal

[elktracker05]

Does anyone know how to remove the passenger side door panel? I need to replace the passenger side mirror and can't get the panel off. This is for a Doge Stratus 2000. Thanks!

Hi. Just finished putting a new pass power mirror on my wifes 2003 stratus. I searched 2 forums for how to take the door panel. I saw no answers to other peoples problems with the door panel. Well here's how I did mine. popped the little interior square cover off on the interior side of the mirror. removed 3 phiplips head screws at the bottom of the panel. removed a little square plastic cover in the door handle recess. then removed the philips head screw under it. removed the little square plastic cover in the armrest recess and the phillips head screw under it. Then gently pried the front of the door panel out. you kinda have lift up at the same time. the rest is obvious about removing the mirror and re installing it. I woulda thought SOMEBODY on this board would have answered your questionbefore now. Oh well. Good luck.

If you 2000 stratus is like my 99 its pretty simple, there are screws behind the door handle, in the arm rest and at the far right side of the pannel, about half way up. There are also 3 screws behind the speaker grill, once you remove all the screws, its pretty simple, like the post above, just lift up, push you lock down and pull out, i've taken mine off 3 times, never had any real problems with removal or reinstallation. hope this helps
