Removing rear side panels in coupe?

Phlipcyde · 06-06-2006, 03:24 AM

Anyone done this yet? I'd like to remove them and do some work back there but I do not want to break anything. Any help would be appreciated.

if you're talking about the garnis (starts from the floor on the side of the panel to the bottom of your seat) make sure you pull near the bottom towards the center
of the car first, then pull up.

unlike other cars ive worked on, there's a hook near the bottom of the
garnis that holds it horizontally... not just up/down.

i cracked it while i was routing my wires under there during my sub
install. got a replacement yesterday for a whopping $9. :lol:

remove the rear seat bottom, the running board panels, and then honestly just pull on the sides...they're cake
