How to reinstal Car Door Panel?

June 29, 2006 8:40 AM

What's the best way to re-install door panels after removing them to install speakers?

I've installed a new speaker iinto my front right door, but when I try to reinstall the panel, it doesn't fit that well, and hence, my door looks like garbage. I'm fed up with the sound on my left speaker, so I'm going to install the speaker for that door as well.

What tips do people have in reinstalling the panel? I appreciate the help!

Use new plastic rivets, first of all. You can get them from most auto supply stores and some hardware stores if you bring in your original ones. That'll help keep the door from rattling.
