How do I remove the door panel from a 2001 dodge ram without destroying it?

Default RE: door panel removal

My secret is to go to the body shop and purchase a box of EACH size poppet that is used to hold the inner door panel, on.


Remove any screws you see, look behind the latch handle, under and around the arm rest, up near the mirror, and anywhere else.......LOL.


Then I would guess that the poppets do the rest. If you have an auto body parts store near by, they sell a tool that will cut those poppets. It has a blade, and you wedge it between the inner panel, and the inner door. You would use something else first, like a small prybar with a taped, tip.

I was never one for grace and finese.....lol. I left some scratches, but the are under the panel. Just wax them when you re assemble the panel.


Hope that help........And I am pretty sure there is a manual for your exact model year. Someone else will post a link.lol. It's a christmas thing .....or other.


Good luck.
