Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.

In this video, we're going to show you how to remove and put back on a rear door panel on this 2003 Buick LeSabre. The only tools you'll need are a flat blade screwdriver, a Phillips screwdriver, and a putty knife or door panel clip tool.

Take a regular screwdriver and gently pry out, hands under, and pull that front panel right out. Use a little Phillips screwdriver right here and remove that screw. Now you're going to use a putty knife or a door panel clip tool, work it under, and pull quick and firm. It comes up and off. Then in behind here is a lead. The lead is clipped on here. I just unclipped it. Press down there. Take it off.

Reconnect this lead and get it clipped right up here. Now there's a metal strip along here. You need to make sure it clips into this channel up here and it's just a matter of pushing it against. Make sure your tabs go in. Very carefully put your screw in.
