Removal of Door Panels on Corsa B

Post by Cl2 RSA B »

Hi guys!

Just need some advice as per the title, I need to remove the door panel to change the standard black interior front grab door handles to chrome. Has anyone done this job before, I just need to know if there is anything to beware of, or any little tricks/tips that could save some time?

Cheers, Stevie

It's a pretty simple job with nothing which would trip you up. I managed to remove mine in a few minutes.

Yep, it's easy. Just make sure the angle grinder isn't running too fast. :lol:

if your talking about that i think you are talking about, the chrome handles come off the vectra or similar, to get the handle on in place of the black one, you have to rip a bit of the sound proofing around the handle, unclip the handle, then just take the handle off the wire and put the other one back on, the hardest part is actually getting the old one off, but its an easy job. the door card is held on by many screws, dont forget to take the whole handle off and side mirror cover (i think) as there are screws under there.

sorry if this is not what you are talking about lol
