05 Sierra door panels removal.... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I can pop one off an old truck in 30 seconds, but this new stuff has me boggled. I got the screw out from the rear of the door and the one tab in the front of the door, but it won't budge. How do I remove it without breaking anything???

Wow...thanks...guess I'll leave this to someone else, that's way more involved than I feel comfortable with. I think the days of me fixing stuff on my own have come to a crashing halt with this 'new' truck.

I did it on my 2006 when I replaced my door handles. Just take your time. It's not really that difficult.

like 71 said, its really not too difficult, just can be time consuming. With todays stuff, u just gotta be careful not to break the plastic. I bought a set of panel removal tools to make it a little easier, instead of having to pry at some of the stuff with a screw driver or something.
