Auto body repair & detailing: door panel, flat blade, siverado


Question
2007 siverado door panels removal.

im having trouble figuring out how to release panel around doorlock slider plastic finger lock/unlock peice area. panel is attached to the goor right at that black with red tag slider. it seems to be in a hole in door securely.

what is the procedure to undo that attached point?

Answer
There's a few tabs between it and the bezel- insert a small flat blade screwdriver between the bezel and handle housing, and you can just see the tabs- you have to pry pretty hard. Push on the tab to release it- it will release sort of violently. Keep pressure on the back sideof the bezel to keep the tab from re-seating, and continue with the other tabs. It's a bit of a bear, and requires some pressure. Bill
