Default noob question. how do i take off my door panels? searched but pictures if faq dont show up

hey when i got my car back from paint my door lock rattles like crazy so i want to take it off and see what it is thats doing it

i looked in the faq but since its all from 2003 none of the pictures show up so can someone tell me how to do it

is it all clips so i just rip the thing off ? or what do i do cuz i dont want clips to break and the door panel sit on it loose
.

it seems like everything is loose in my car and when i hit a bump everything bangs and makes a noise. i want everything to be stiff again and i was gonna stuff my door panels with something.
any ideaS????

thanks in advanced


i have a 92 civic hatch by the way

Remove the "C" clip behind the window crank using a flathead. Remove the screw in the door handle pocket, then remove the pocket. Remove the screw behind the door handle and remove the shroud around the door handle. Remove the plastic screw where the panel meets the dash using a Philips screw driver, then remove the retaining clip. Pop off the door clips starting at the bottom of the door.

You have to push the panel is a little and pull out of the crank. You'll see a metal looking clip. It's tricky to remove. Think of the clip as looking like a Greek Omega symbol. I find the end that's "curling" away (not the top part of the clip) and use the flathead to push the clip free.
