How To Remove Front Door Panel - Nissan Altima 2007 - 2012

[@douglaschristensen9505]

If every tutorial was this way the world would be a better place. Awesome thank you

[@DIYtime]

Thanks! 😁

[@liquid619]

@@DIYtime Can you lift the window control panel without removing anything else? Great tutorial thank you!

[@anthonybrown3481]

This what I'm talking about. Straight to business none of that talking mess. Great video.

[@DIYtime]

Thanks!

[@mstringham]

This was the best video I found because it was short and sweet and helped me. I didn’t have to listen to all the commentary, I just watch the steps. Perfect

[@calebleger1343]

Thank you for having a straight forward answer to my question. Wish all DIY videos were like this. If you want a story put it at the end of the vid. Thanks again!

[@DIYtime]

Thanks!

[@kylerwayne3725]

Best car video I’ve seen, super to the point. No pointless talking and shows exactly what needs to be seen 👍

[@gleuszler]

0:26-CAUTION! If you have the Nissan Altima Coupe, DO NOT try to remove this piece of fabric trim! I learned that the hard way, when I damaged the door panel trying to do what he is doing here. (I fixed the panel with hot glue.) This procedure is for the SEDAN, whose door panel is a different animal than the Coupe's. To remove the door panel on the Coupe, first remove the plastic cover behind the door handle (like with the Sedan) and the screw behind it. Next, remove the window/door lock switches (as demonstrated at 1:11). This will expose one large bolt, which holds the panel to the door. The other bolt is hidden beneath the silver or wood-tone trim strip. Remove this strip (pushing out one or two of the snaps from behind in the door lock switch cavity helps get this started) and remove the other large bolt. Finally, remove the panel light and the panel as demonstrated at 1:50.

Damn, read this an hour too late haha. RIP to the plastic posts...

Wow thank you for the heads up!

Simple, fast, and straight to the point! Love it, and thank you!

[@edelfrink9449]

You just helped me out immensely! The knob to adjust the mirrors fell inside the door panel and you showed how easy it is to troubleshoot.

[@natepeet]

By far one of the very best disassembly videos on KZbin. Thanks for such a quality video!

[@danshaevel6828]

This was amazingly well done! Well thought out, recorded simply, and a huge help. I am replacing my own front window switches and this video was perfect.

[@Sportek24]

Best video ever ! Not too much talking and right to the point all videos should be like this one

[@cntryboygeetar]

Simple and to the point, really nice video. I hate drawn out videos that get no where. Nice job

[@DIYtime]

Thanks!

[@bruceaseltine1]

This was the best video that I have seen with no unnecessary speaking. The installation is a bit trickier. Those plastic snaps are weak.

[@DIYtime]

Hi I’m curious if you did a video on replacing the part in the door that works with the keyfob. I have a 2012 and mine has been messed up for a while. I have to manually lock/unlock the door.

[@DIYtime]

No, mine still works ok.

[@immerume2]

good vid. any idea how to remove the handle on the inside from the encase wire? the lever peice broke and I want to replace that little module. keep feeling like it's going to snap the cable some how

[@DamianEsteves]

Very helpful video. Replaced my mirror using these steps

[@BobbyFortune]

Just changed out my driver side mirror due to this video, thank you very much 🙏🏾🙌🏾✌🏾 Great example, great camera work, very easy to follow along #DIY

[@jacobg208]

I’m about to help my friend with his car. I really hope it goes as smooth as this video depicts 😂😭 all I know is my door panel was a PAIN in the ass

[@kingbotzcustoms]

Do you also have a video on the rear door-panel removal? Thanks!

[@DIYtime]

+kingbotz No, but I guess I could shoot one really quick...

[@kingbotzcustoms]

+Temachok Awesome, thanks!!!

[@gl85035]

this video is awesome! is it pretty much the same technique for a nissan altima coupe?

[@DIYtime]

+gl85035 It sould be pretty similar in general.

[@gleuszler]

+Temachok It is actually quite different. The piece of fabric trim which he is removing at 0:26 is integral to the door panel on the Coupe and is not removable. The third step in this demonstration (removing the window/door lock switches) is the second step for the Coupe. One of the two large bolts that hold the panel to the door is hidden underneath the door lock switch assembly, while the other bolt is hidden beneath a silver or wood-tone trim strip, which must be pried off (step three) to expose and remove it. Finally, remove the panel light and the panel as demonstrated at 1:50.

[@ivan7247]

I love your videos you should keep posting video different part of the altima such as changing the brake pads and more.

[@DIYtime]

+ivan7247 Thanks! As a matter of fact, I am doing rear breaks this week. I plan to record it.

[@chronixrides7570]

Sooooo i have a question what if your door won't open how do you get that off?

[@lordnellbaptiste9206]

Great video and quality work! awesome job man!

[@DIYtime]

Thnks!

[@natepinto444]

Do not try this if you have the Nissan Altima COUPE or your arm rest will need to be replaced.

[@vukhadinh3104]

[@TKD187]

Is there access to get to the window I need to get my window back on track I don't want to go through all that if there isn't even access to the window

[@DIYtime]

Yes, there is, after you remove the door panel.

[@bennattj]

So, to fix my side view mirror, I'm going to have to pull the whole door panel off?

[@DIYtime]

+Jared B I think yes.

[@sammorgano7106]

can i bang out a dent by doing this? looks like its not accessible

[@DIYtime]

+sam morgano May be. Give it a try, it only takes a few minutes to remove panel.

[@cochecoch132]

Mi pierta no quiere abrir se cerro se abre el seguro y todo biem pero no abrio como le quito el panel si no puede abrir

Use a finesse stick rather than screw driver to prevent scratching plastic

I need to get my panel off but my door won't open lol I followed every step but because door won't open I can't get it off haha

[@EllieCarter5225]

Why doesn't any one show how to get door open to take the panel off

[@DIYtime]

🤨Huh...!?

[@EllieCarter5225]

@@DIYtime I have a nissan altima that the door is locked from the inside and outside. Everyone says take door panel off however I cant get the door open to work on it

[@DIYtime]

You can try to take off the arm support piece and see if you can reach the door handle cable (see in the end of the video). Pull on that cable and door should open.

[@EllieCarter5225]

@@DIYtime the only difference between the 4dr and the 2dr is that the padded arm rest doesn't come out. It is the trim panel on the handle that pops out, revealing the last bolt. I broke 6 of the plastic melt pins. Loctite glue to the rescue! Other than that it was smooth!
