Door panel removal

How do i remove 04 g35x front door panels? Any write ups? Theres rattling coming from passenger side door panel and now my right speaker i think is a loose connection. It sometimes fully works and now past few days it will come on and off. It must be the wires from the speaker and not the speaker harness behind radio.

There are 3 screws. One by the interior door lock/opener and two under the door trim piece (under the red circles shown in the pic).

Us a flat head screwdriver to remove the coverings. On the door trim, there is a small slit toward the bottom of the trim, put the screwdriver head in there and twist. It should snap the trim off.

After you remove the 3 screws, grab the handle (where the trim piece is) and pull it towards you. Give it a good tug. Not to hard but with a little bit of effort. Disconnect the lower door light. You're in.



There, thats the best I could do. good luck

don't forget to disconnect the wiring to your switches before pulling out the panel all the way.

Also i believe there is a metal rod for the door handle that you have to disconnect.

That's correct. Use a small head flat screwdriver to "pop" the square cover off that is beside the door lock. The screw is underneath.

ohhhh i see it, okay. I was thinking the actual thing that moves to lock and unlock, but i saw beside it the square box. i hope its easy to get it back in, its easy to take it out, but its a pain to match up the pin holes to get it back in properly. Havent seen the inside yet.

Bump. I need to take off the door panel off of my car to do the reset, but I dont think its the same as the sedans.

Can anyone tell me how to remove the door panel on the coupe (newer interior if it matters) to get to the window motor?

if you could be detailed in the instructions i'd appreciate it.

Your answer should be in the interior section. It's hard to ask the sedan guys how to open up a coupe.
