  • Front door card removal

    Does anyone know how to remove the front door cards? After popping loose the clips around the edge, I'm stuck because of the interior handle [emoji35]

    At the bottom of the handle there is a small space to insert a hook or failing that, a finger nail to pull the insert forward. This reveals two torx bolts.

    Pull forwards along the longitudinal axis of the door, rather than towards you.

        Adding on to this, I took my front door card off on the passenger side a month ago, now I can't get it to fit back on with the top seal/weather window strip thing on.
        Anyone got any special tips for getting the door cards back on?

          Have removed mine a couple of times, Open the window and position the rubber top of the door card onto the door window frame then push down slightly.

          Be sure to line up the central locking indicator light before pushing down or you'll crack the plastic clip, once lined up it will all clip back in.
