Door panel

I have a 1993 two-door and am trying to remove my passenger door panel so I can replace my shattered windshield. I've removed all the door trim screws, the sail panel screws, the long screw under the armrest, the screw behind the lock latch, the door lock button panel, the piece on the door handle that says "Grand Am", and the screw immediately behind that. But the door panel still won't come off and seems stuck on something. Possibly the door handle itself.

What else do I need to remove to take it off?

Re: Door panel

thier are some door panel clips holding the panel on.

If thiers a pocket on the door, thier could be screws holding it on through the door panel.

Is there a way to remove the door handle or does a professional have to do it? Because that's what it feels like is holding it on.

Re: Door panel

Ahhh yes, that lovely lock lever. You have to remove the plastic cover on the lever. Unlock the door, carefully insert a small screwdriver under the front of the lever and pry it out. The front comes out, grab it and pull the back off the lever. There is a screw hidden behind that lever. Remove the screw, the plastic panel it holds in turns a bit before it comes out. Have fun putting it back in, you have to rotate it then as well while not loosing the lock lever behind it. Have patience, once you get it off and on without any problems it becomes very easy. Good luck.

Re: Door panel

Sorry about that, I forgot that rod lever on the handle.

IT is a pita!
