Removing door panel? Help required.

[Brian E220]

I am having problems with a front electric window on my 1995 E220 Coupe. I have to remove the door panel to get at the internals too see whats happening (it sounds mechanical).

I tried to remove the door panel but stopped before I broke something. I removed the door handle (internal) trim, a chrome plate at the top of the door (door end with lock) and a black clip around the lock mechanism.

Can someone please let me know what the trick is with safely removing the panel. I know about the foil on the door itself when I finally remove the panel.

Thanks.

It is very hard to explain on a keyboard.Very easy if you are beside the door.The best way is to buy a Haynes Manual .It will show you in detail .Hope this helps.

3 screws - - large phillips. keep looking till u find them all.

top edge held with springy clips.

bottom and sides held with pop off clips.

pull bottom out, pull sides out. possibly remove triangle over mirror.

'lift' door panel.


just be careful!

but buy a haynes if i were u.

Thanks for the replies chaps. I didn't think there was a Haynes Manual that covered a 1995 E220 Coupe (W124 I think). :?

Not sure mate .But try their website they will have a list of all the models they cover.

someone mentioned somewhere that their only W124 manual fits most of the more recent W124s even though it stops at 93 I think.
