2011 - 2013 Kia Sorento inner door panel tips

[@mikekusa]

David. I understand and appreciate the video that you did, without it I would have been lost. Thanks much!

[@mikekusa]

Hi David, Yes I did, it seems the top of it is stuck and wont come out, I removed the screws fro the door opener and still stuck

Check for any missed fasteners. It should feel lose all around before moving on.

[@davidvenstra5056]

I assume you detached the window from the regulator.

[@mikekusa]

@@davidvenstra5056 oh. No I did not do that! That’s why it won’t come out. I’ll keep you posted. I do not remember that in your video.

[@davidvenstra5056]

I'm looking forward to the update. Best of luck. Sorry. This video was made to point out the differences between this new KIA design and all the other cars out there, not a DIY tutorial.

Do i need the window up or can i do it with it down? Ive been trying with it down and the window has been in the way, then when i try with it up, the glass wont come down far enough for me to replace the latch. Please help

[@davidvenstra5056]

There are two holes in the inner panel. About half way down the bolts will line up with the holes and you can remove them. Make sure to have control of the window when you remove the bolts. I suggest after taking the bolts out, lift the window all the way up and use some heavy tape to keep it up and out of the way.

Niiiice door tips

Mine won’t come out even after I took door opener off and took screws out! Why?

[@davidvenstra5056]

Did you remove the torx screws from the latch assembly?

Same issue here.

[@jordanberumez]

Same, did everything mentioned. Currently working on passenger front side door. And it’s the upper right panel that’s giving me problems
