Install Question

How do you go about removing your door panels.
I own a 98 max SE and I can get everything off but the
door handles. I cant remove those and therefore cant remove
my door panel. HELP ME OUT PLEASE!!!!!

Heh

the little rectangle things around the doorhandle right?

Those things are trademark nissan. **** that's hard to takeoff, and breaks if you do it wrong. Same with the corner lights, and plugs in the carpet in the trunk. Take a flat head screwdriver, and pry the end off that's closer to the front of the car. From there, you need to put the screwdriver in the top (or bottom) of the other end, and pry it off .. it should pop out after a little bit of messing around with it.

Again, it's standard nissan and will break if you use excessive force. Be careful

It's tough to get it off. Use 2 small flat head screwdrivers if possible. It takes some force. Good luck.

After you pry the front of that trim ring loose a little bit, stick the screwdriver in above the trim ring about ½" from the back and push down. There's a tab that sticks straight up behind the door panel that you have to push down far enough for it to pop out. It's easy once you know the trick.
