Default RE: cant get the window handle off!

if ur just putting speakers in its not a real big deal if the door panel is still there i did it just fine in my car and i put 6 1/2 infinitys up front best speakers ive ever bought. also i didnt read many of the methods used but there is an easier way than using a fork or a wash cloth, go to your local tool store i went to sears because they sell craftsman and bought a 4 pack of these hook tools 1 u shaped hook a straight hook a 90 degree one and a z shaped one the U one worked the best for me. im not sure of the name of the tool tho

ORIGINAL: Drunkship

Nevermind. I finally got it off, but then I couldn't unclip a wireharness and get some metal rod connected to the door handle off. Then there was a sheet of some materal glued to the inside of the door covering it.

Needless to say I threw a screwdriver somewhere and lost it and kicked a big dent in the door. Anyone want to buy a 1999 sedan SOHC with 85,xxx miles?

I've had enough of this POS car.
You unclip the two by...I think you need a screwdriver to push up the frame of the outer connector a bit so the little nub can slip out of the harness. A small screwdriver. Would not be a good day to damage the connectors.

The thing I'm having a real problem with is ALIGNING THE FRAMELESS WINDOWS. And the right-side window regulator...one of the metal arms popped out because the plastic thingy inside the rail snapped in two. I can hear the wind whistling at pretty much all speeds.

sorry to say this, but if you cannot get a simple door panel off, then you really really should just stick to teh bus.

yeah the washcloth/towel method does work you just have to be patient and watch out for the clip. But yes it is a small copper looking clip.
