Door panels... exterior mirror - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Is there somewhere to find a step by step on how to remove the door panel so that I can mount a passenger side rear view mirror? I was thinking this was something I could do, but heh heh... not so much luck yet.

it might help to know that it is a 67 GMC...

first remove the arm rest, then remove the door handle and window crank (there is a little "c" clip on the back of the handles that there is a tool for to remove, although you might be able to do it with neelde nose pliers and a slotted screw driver) then remove the 4 screws on the bottom of the door panel and it should come right off.

Thanks! I sort of got a little impatient and didn't put the nuts on the back and just screwed the three 5/16 screws into 9/32 holes that I drilled. Nice tight fit. One day, when I get adventurous, I'll put those nuts on back there.
