BMW F01 F02 REAR door panel removal (with shades) ALL MODELS

How to remove a rear door panel with shades on a F01 F02 i and LI from 2008-2105.
Don't be afraid it is not as hard as it seems, save yourself some money and DIY!
Good luck!

In case anyone is interested. The removal procedure for the front door is the same as shown here for the rear. The difference is that there is no shade so those steps are ignored. There's 1 more T30 behind the wood trim and the tweeter needs to be removed first and is just held on with some pressure. Easy to pry off. Thanks a lot for the video dude

Despite being an older video, I thought I would comment on the first step; the removal of the plastic pin. The proper way is NOT to try to pull the pin out from the bottom, this is extremely difficult to do and can easily lead to damaging the pin or upholstery. The proper way is to gently push the pin up so it clears the trim. The remove the trim as per the video. Once off, pull out the pin from the inside and set it aside; it is only reinserted until flush, from the bottom, ONCE the trim has been reinstalled. (Think of it as a one way pin, only pushed up, never pulled out.)

[@edwinrasenberg2155]

Per original guide, pushing up can get the pin stuck and preventing the trim removal or braking it. Yes pushing in is way easier but also comes with a risk

[@soyyo9704]

Thank you , that pin underneath was not letting pull it off. You helped 👍🏽

How do I fix the back rear passenger blind?it won't come???

[@sherryrebresh6555]

Can you tell me how to get the ashtray door of that rear panel to stay closed? Great video on how to remove the door panel.. just not quite what I needed, but good to know

[@robertmoats396]

You dont have to remove door to fix ashtrey it just pops out with switch unplug electric. Theres a little silver pin that gets loose on ashtray. I just pushed in pin with a tiny nail than put a couple daps of super glue on pin to keep it from sliding back. Ashtray is fixed..

[@shanerasberry510]

On my f02 you have to literally sit in the seat for the ashtray to close. Crazy as it sounds I think it’s motion sensor

😮 I'm having to do this today .. Thank you for the help 🙏🏻

Firstly, thank you for sharing this. I need to replace the shades on my 750li let me know if you have a vid for that

[@benwilliams1826]

Great video. I also need info on the rear door shade replacement

[@nabilb1484]

I have the same problem. The shade of the back door left dont working more.. 2 others shade are working.. its a car of 11 year old i know 11 year is much but.. my opinion bmw is not a good quality. On my f01 with 202000km i have always somethings that goign wrong / defect.. and early i had diferent bmw, and it was also somethings wrong (e70/ e61 / f10 / e65 ) . With some another brand of car, you can have a 15 year old car with no much problem in all his 15 year ..

[@aymanalhousa4069]

Thank you so much ... I’m having problem at the same side ( curtain) ... somehow it’s hung .

[@raybutts9133]

Thanks, Very good video.

How can I fix rear window repair shades on BMW 730

[@kiickinballistics]

Excellent video. Thanks. I was thinking once you removed the door panel, where’s the airbag, or is that above the door (curtain)? There must be some tips about working around the areas where airbags occupy...or does it simply not matter!

[@BMWorks_NL]

James R just unplug it :)

[@fabvoyage306]

For the window/blind control where they ash tray is... To replace that do I have to remove the door? Or does that clip into place and can be done without taking the door pannel off?

[@realkuka8356]

Do i need to take out the panel to fix an issue with the sunshade?

[@KapilDesaiKD3]

Have you done the roof linner removal for this car?

[@mmohorjy6520]

hi brother, thank you for this great video - i want ask about front panel ( Driver ) how we can replace it?? thanks again

[@TurboDodgeXVI]

Its removed the same way, just without the door shade steps and has 1 extra t30 screw behind the wood trim. Will also have to pop off the tweeter which is just pressure clipped on. So a nice pry with a plastic tool

I have a 2012 BMW 750 li, the passenger rear window shade does not go Up or down

[@dstavrianos]

I have the exact year with a similar problem that just happened, like 10 minutes ago. The receiver tab on the right side appears to be going up and down the track, but the receiver on the left side is not. Did you ever resolve this? What did it run you?
