Door trim off

Post by Wolfi »

Hi,
Just wondering, does anybody on here know how to get the door trim off a Polo three-door drivers side?
Any advice would be helpful!!!

How come you wanna take it off? There is a hidden screw behind the handle trim with the mirror switches. There is a screw at the bottom of the door and then it is a case of popping the panel off! Although on Elsawin which is the workshop manual that vw use there is a sequence of which clips you pop first to avoid breaking. Then unplug the wiring harness.

Oh, We have a small scrach on the window and were thinking about getting a new window.
But, It is only a small scratch on the window and can scratch the paint on the top of the door, on the other side after a previous experience with a mk4 golf.
We have talked ourselves out of it now and will just carry on with it and maybe replace it later.....
Cheers!!!
