rear trim panel removal
i am wondering if someone on here may be able to walk me through the removal of the driver side rear inside trim panel on a '97 expedition. it would be the one just to the rear of the long side window. i have a project in mind that requires this panel to come off in order to access a wire bundle which is behind it.
for you tailgaters, by cutting the white wire with the purple stripe and installing a switch, you can turn off all those pesky in-vehicle and running board lights, without having to pull a fuse. thanks hokiebob. i've had this modification in mind for quite a while, now it is time to get'r done!
thanks all in advance......lakeside

Pry up the window switch trim; disconnect the electrical connector to power window switch
Remove door handle trim cover; remove the bolt retaining the door handle
Remove the 2 trim screws at the bottom of the door panel-lift the trim panel UPWARD to avoid damaging it, not outward. It basically hangs in place from the top.

gevans-
thanks for the help, but you are releasing the door panel.....that's not my problem.
again- i am wanting to take off the inside rear most interior trim panel, driver side. it is the one just to the rear of the large expy side window..on 3 seat models, there is a third row shoulder belt anchor sticking out of the plastic panel. on my '97, the panel curves into the rear door inside seal.
gevans, i will however print off your directions just in case i might need them in the future. thanks....
