how does the door trim come off?

There's the screw at the bottom, one in the armrest, the two on the side, unscrew the push button thingy - is there something else? How do I do this?

I was gonna say. You've missed a few screws.  Absolutely read those links.  There's at least two very smart blokes with good advice in those links.  Hey OBH

One thing I will say which I'm sure is in one of them is that after you remove the handle/armrest/ window winder(if you've got em)  etc and the moulding is ready to be removed, make sure you bump the moulding upwards so you don't break the clips that face downwards that hold it to the door.  You only break these clips once and you learn.  You'll see what I mean when you get that far.  Let us know how you get on.

Many thanks chaps, I shall report on progress....I have a sticky window motor and some uncooperative central locking.....

Old post I know but thought I would ask...

I'm about to do some explorative surgery in the passenger's door trim to diagnose a very slow window that I suspect is gummed up with old grease, but may have other issues.

There have been some great posts on how to get the trim off (good stuff Oscar) but I'm dying to know what's at that the Schuman Auto site and can't get to it - can anyone enlighten me?

Cheers,
Matt.
