I actually closed my door and started to look around as to how he might remove the panel and still can't figure out a way. I'm running a '93 Aero with Recarro's and I don't think I could get it off without damaging the door panel or the seat regardless of what I did. I orginally suggested a slim-jim to throw the latch from above. If you can remember what you did - I'll bet the original poster would be deeply appreciative and future googlers would be forever in your debt. -- Radio Free Dexterdyne Top Tune o'be-do-da-day Joe Cocker - Bird on a Wire http://www.dexterdyne.org/888/060.RAM all tunes - no cookies no subscription no weather no ads no news no phone in no sign up required - all the Time Dexter J's fab SAAB 900 for sale: http://www.dexterdyne.org/310.HTM
