1. Remove door trim panel assembly from both doors. (Refer to the appropriate car line year Shop Manual, Section 45-03, reflecting removal and installation instructions for door trim panel.)

2. On back of each door trim panel, remove (2) clips and apply thin coat of adhesive (use 3M structural adhesive - 3M part number 0801) on both sides of clip. Install the clips as shown in Figure 1.
3. Obtain plastic tapes (2" x 2") (use 3M scotch plastic tape no.471 - part number 06425) and apply over each installed clip to retain the clips as shown.
