August 25, 200917 yr comment_368499 Over the years I have removed many door cards from many different cars with varying success. Is there a fail-safe way of doing this without causing any damage or pulling the plastic lugs through the cardboard? I recently learnt the trick of using a piece of material to remove the clip holding window winders on. Is there a similar trick to removing door cards? Report
August 25, 200917 yr comment_368504 maybe use a trim puller, my ke20 doorcards just broke no matter what way i did it, kind of sucks but i guess after 35year the wood is going to break when a little bit of pressure is applied Report

August 25, 200917 yr comment_368565 A trick that a bloke at the local wreckers taught me was to get a flathead screwdriver and try and get it next to the clip then twist/lever it off. This puts the pressure on the plastic clip, rather than the door trim. You'll need to get "in there" to see if you're getting the screwdriver next to the clip, though. Report
August 25, 200917 yr comment_368577 easiest way to remove window winder clips is get a rag and run it behind the winder and it pulls the clip out Report
August 25, 200917 yr comment_368586 easiest way to remove window winder clips is get a rag and run it behind the winder and it pulls the clip out If you actually read the first post, he is already doing that. An easy way of removing the plastic door card clips without damaging the door card is what he was asking about. There is an actual window winder removal tool???? Oh ffs!!! I assume this is available at motor parts outlets.... motormate etc? Yea check out your local parts places or panel beating suppliers. You can also get dedicated door trim tools.
