cruiser647 Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 Hi ya! How do you crack the glass? Those things are thick! Not sure how to remove stuff like that though. Short of getting the RAC in, I'm not sure what else to suggest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsYcHe Posted April 23, 2013 Report Share Posted April 23, 2013 Depends on which model of A8 you have... But there's usually a couple of bolts behind the wood trim, and at least one other place onthe door, then it pulls off. And try A8parts for a cheap replacement if you haven't already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruiser647 Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 Over the weekend, I'll have a look on ETKA and see if interior door trim stuff is listed with a breakdown picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snapdragon Posted May 6, 2013 Report Share Posted May 6, 2013 You will probably need new clips, they are a one-use item that rip apart in my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
