Help With Door Panel Removel

[goldwing1800]

2000 honda civic 2 door. I'm trying to remove the passenger side door panel. Any help locating all screws and clips would appreciated.

I've got a '00 si, should be the same...there is a screw behind the door handle. You have to pull the handle out, like when you are opening the door, and you'll see a screw. 2nd screw is in the little finger hole, where you would grab to shut the door (behind the window/doorlock buttons). 3rd - there are three screws behind the speaker cover. You have to pull the speaker grill off, and locate the three screws in there. That's all of the screws, make sure you unplug the wiring harnesses attached to the door lock/window buttons, the actual door lock harness, and the speaker harness. After that I usually start behind where the speaker is and work my way around unpopping the plastic clips. Be careful when re-installing the door panel, i pushed too hard in the wrong spots and actually broke the plastic panel apart. Now I need to get a replacement one, which sucks. But it's still on and really i'm the only one who knows its broken! Hope this helps! I'm not sure what you are planning on doing with the panel off, but if you start and can't figure out how to take it off, you probably should just take it somewhere to do it!!

Hey thanks. The info is for my son who is in the Navy. I was trying to help him over the phone, but my Honda's are older, and we got no where fast.
