Hi, I'm Mike Green. I'm one of the owners of 1A Auto. I want to help you save time and money repairing or maintaining your vehicle. I'm going to use my 20-plus years experience restoring and repairing cars and trucks like this to show you the correct way to install parts from 1AAuto.com. The right parts installed correctly: that's going to save you time and money. Thank you and enjoy the video.

In this video, we will be showing you how to remove the rear door panel on this 1998 Durango. The only tool you will need is a Phillips screwdriver.

First, you are going to want to pull this molding off. Just kind of work your fingers underneath and pull it out. Right here there is a screw. You can see our door panel has already been taken apart and broken. Remove the Phillips screw right here.

Now there are four more Phillips screws: one down at the bottom, another at the bottom, one underneath the door pull here, and then one in behind your door handle here. We will fast-forward removing those four screws. Once all those screws are out, you pull up and out.

Behind you will have a clip here, that you have to pull off. Then that comes up. Right here is your window switch, push down on the tab and release it, and then your door panel comes off.

To put it back on push and reconnect the window switch. Put your rod in. Push it down, and then flip the clip over. Take the lock, push it through, and make sure it is up. Put the door handle into place.

Okay, once you've got it into place, then reinstall your five screws. We will kind of fast-forward through that. Then your molding.

We hope this video helps you out. Brought to you by www.1AAuto.com, your source for quality replacement parts and the best service on the Internet. Please feel free to call us toll-free, 888-844-3393. We're the company that's here for you on the Internet and in person.
