Can anyone help me? I need to find out how to remove the driver side door panel on my 96 civic coupe. For some reason my side window is off alignment and it won't close properly.

Remove the mirror garnish in the top front corner, just pull back on the top of it, it just snaps into place.

Pop off the speaker cover in the lower front corner.

Remove the speaker

Remove 4 phillips head screw the suround the speaker opening

Remove the little hand grip on the armrest that you close the door with one phillips screw

Remove the plastic piece around the door handle one phillips screw

Start at the lower corner where the speaker was, and pull straight out, it is clipped in, so you're going to have to pull kinda hard. Some clips might break but it's ok autozone sells them in packs for very cheap

Once you make your way all the way around the door, pull the entire door panel outward from the bottom, and lift up. There is a lip at the top, that the panel slides down over...

Of course if you have power acc. you will have to unplug them. It's easy just unplug the clip.


Hope this helps, it's really not too hard, if you have any more question just p/m me.

My car's too old and I snapped off the Mirror garnish. By any chance do you know where I can get another one? Plus trying to put the mirror garnish is a bitch

or try a local salvage yard. I usually do that unless I just want a brand new part.

I would try a junkyard for this, or the site like the other gentleman listed. And what he also posted on the door panel removal is correct.
