how do I remove my interior door trim

Dave_in_Spain · 20-07-2005, 19:15

I've got a bit of a problem with my Skoda Fabia and I can't find a Haynes manual for it (The Haynes website says they haven't released it because there weren't enough Fabias sold to warrant publishing it)

Anyways I was hoping I might be able to find someone who might be able to help me out. The electric window on the front passenger door dropped down inside the door the other day. I can't figure out how to get the door trim off without breaking anything so I can have a look and see what the problem is. I can still hear the motor when I work the switch so I know that isn't it. I think the window has just dropped off of a runners inside the door or something. The mechanic in the local garage wants 150 euros just for parts and then he'll charge labour on top and he hasn't even looked at it!!

I just want to know how to remove the interior trim without damaging anything.

Can anyone help please??

Hello Dave, as from the other thread.

The window regulator will have snapped. It comes complete with the aluminium ancilleries carrier.

I saw a pair of these (complete carriers) on ebay within last few days. Auction may have finnished now (possibly not sold - no bids when I looked) - may be worth doing a search. Try also completed listings, if not sold, seller may do a deal?

Just realized, you're in Spain! Still, may still be worth a try with international postage? Those carriers look EXPENSIVE!

About £60-£80 iirc for the regulator and carrier.

teedeeye · 20-07-2005, 22:38

Just done a search on ebay. Sold 3 days ago, £31 the pair (complete with window mech, speakers et al)!
Sorry!
Still, £60 - £80 aint too bad.
