Hellooo, removing my door card to fit puddle lights and I started with the rear. Broke a number of clip holders that are part of the door card itself (I'll have to glue them back together). The card was really stiff to come off using a plastic trim removal tool and left most of the plugs in the door! Any tips on getting these cards off before I attempt the front? Must be an easier way?

Thanks
Kevin

Yea you need a 2 forked shaped plastic trim tool to pull the plug from the door. They are funny little things that move slightly to lock.

Brilliant! Thanks for that. Wish I'd checked first before removing them... sure a bit of glue will work Ok to hold them back on.

Thanks
