Remove the metal grab handle then use a suitable too, to pry the door card off, there are plastic clips in the trim that engage witht the door just like the other doors on the vehicle.

Here's a picture of the door with the card removed. The plastic clips, about 7of them clip into to holes to can see. I think sizx around the edges and one in the door centre.
You'll need to remove the squarish plastic insert behind the interior lift handle to get the door card off - do that first. The clips get brittle with age as in the cold, but they only need a little bit of a lever to get them out. |

Thx Hal, are they the Fir Tree type clips? Also- while I’ve got it off, any preventative maintenance stuff I should do while in there?

Not fir tree, slide-in double head to attach to inner side of door card with a push fit into the holes in the door frame.
I sika flexed the door skin then taped over it, you can see the silver tape. I did that when I fitted a mantec wheel carrier - the skin had come away from the inner support struts. Whilst I was in there I also changed the wiper relay wiring to allow delay wipe and I fairly recently ran a power lead for the high level brake light as the printed connection on the window glass phad a break where the cover for the light rubs against it. Unfortunately I've lost the wiring diagram for the wiper relay but I do know I got it off a German land rover forum - Google translate is your friend. Maybe someone on def2 has something. |
