How to Reattach a 2005-2013 BMW 3 Series Door Panel Liner (2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013)

Введение

If the liner on the door panel of your 2005-2013 BMW 3 Series is drooping or is coming loose, follow these steps to remove your door panel and reattach the liner. By removing the trim and a few screws, the door panel will be free to pry loose. Once you know where the screws are, car door panels are easy enough to remove with no more than a screwdriver. BMWs require a Torx screwdriver. Aside from the location of the screws, just about any car door panel is the same. There are internal plastic clips around the bottom edge and metal ones at the top. All clips come loose by pulling/prying straight out. Any pry tool will work; just try to avoid one that could harm the surfaces.
