I got a '95 civic coupe Ex, and need to take the entire door panel off of the drivers side. I already tried, by taking the plastic screw off(below mirror) the screw near the power window controls(inside the holder), the screw behind the door handle, and even took off the speaker cover(just to see inside). After doing this I noticed the door panel got a little looser, but it still won't come off when I pulled it in all directions. I've never tooken any door panels off before and I'm not experienced. Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong, of if theres anything else I need to do. I was thinking there is a special technique to sliding it off but I'm lost. Diagrams(pics) would help tremendously. -Hector L.

 

check under the handles...theres a screwin there.....and little plastic pop out pieces that hold it on all around the edges.

 

I got the screw behind handle out already but what plastic pop out peices are you talking about?

 

hmmmm......

i took the panels off from a 94 civic hatch by just popping all the plastic things out, the door handle, then lifted it up and it slid right out....

i dunno try to see if you can tell where its catching at, then look there for something ??

The entire panel is held up by these pop out screws(minus the inside door handle, window handle,etc..). when you give it a little more force the plastic pieces will pop out of their mounting holes, hence the name pop out screws. You'll get the idea when you do pull the panel off with a little more force. It won't hurt the panel.

Start from the bottom part first.

 

I got it off by pulling on it with more force.yay!, but two of the gray plastic things broke off.
