2010 E coupe door panel removal

This is an extremely easy door panel....First, remove shiny end plate held with 3 torx (no pic, but obvious)

Second, carefully pop cover revealing 1 larger torx


Third, very carefully pop off metal trim piece, it's got some funky pops I've never seen



There are two more larger torx up in the openings under the handle


Then pop the door panel and lift up, popped off very easily, I was totally surprised (here I have it rested on a bucket, no reason to take it completely off)


The felt piece is a little tricky, but comes off easily as well, it's attached to the front so just leave it hanging and tint yer winder, then put it back together


Here's my disclaimer....I'm just a dumb old tinter, if you mess up someone's car using "my directions", then your an idiot

Great info

just curious why would you pull a frame less door panel off

Cuz it kept peeling, it's crazy tight and it does the stupid "roll down an inch when you open the door" thing....even after heating and letting it sit, it would peel..... there is a second and even tighter felt piece below the top one, you have to go below that piece or it's going to peel

how was the rear quarter and the little wing behind it?

the only thing i do different, is that i use metal strps and bend two of them in a "S" shape. i use these for hangers to hang the pannel on the door once the weather strip is removed. they work great to hang the pannel from and not have to work around a bucket, looks more professional then a bucket...

I'm trying to find the fast trick for the rear roll up panel..tips are welcome. most of the time was spent on the roll up quarters.

yeah that was my question. ive seen one but havent tinted any. the rear quarter and wing were my concern.

have one of these on monday can anyone tell me if there is any problems to look out for with rear windows. Thank forany info

Great info for panal removal TINTINATER .Back window bit tight due to headrests non removal other than that ok car.
