9N3: Removing rear panels (3 door)

Post by monk »

What i did:
I wanted to get rid of some vibrating noises that were made by the subwoofer when it was played a little louder.

What you need:

1 screwdriver,
1 scissor,
some fluffy material to put on the backside of the panel


Step one:
i recommend you get rid of the back seats because it will be a lot easier for you to get the panels out.

Step two:

the threshold has some clamps that you can easily get out with your hand link in the pictures below:

step three:

remove the plastic screw underneath the seat.

step four:

carefully using the screwdriver, start removing the panel. after you managed to unloosen the clamps from the pillar you can use your hand for the next 3 ones. be careful because the clamps break very easy.

this is where the clamps go in:

after removing the panel you simply cut the material you want to use and place it on the back side.

IF YOU HAVE INTERIOR MOVEMENT SENSORS BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU PUT THE LEFT PANEL BACK ON TO CONNECT THE DEACTIVATION BUTON.


hope this will be useful for someone because today when i wanted to do this i couldn't find any tutorial for this.
