How to repair your door panel trim

Does your door panel trim look like this?

How to repair:
Tools needed:
Replacement part
flat head screw driver or putty knife or what ever you have handy
stapler
First: Get a replacement. I had to get mine at a junkyard.
4 door cars remember: The ones off of the back do not fit on the front but the front ones fit each other and the back ones fit each other.
Second: Take off your door panel: First take off the screw covers. Then unscrew the the screws behind the covers. Now pop off the door panel with a putty knife or screwdriver or what ever you have handy.
Third: pop out the staples with a flat head.
Fourth: Put the new trim in place and staple it on.
Fifth: Put your door panel back on and the screws in and the covers back on.
Should look like this:

Hope this helps

Nice write up, when I did mine I had to get new door clips so keep that in mind.

Where did you get new door clips?

^You can get door panel clips at any auto store.

What size staples did you use? It may help to put something inside to keep them from coming through the top.

Just the regular kind for like school or an office. They look like they are 1/4 inch.

i need to replace the trim on both doors but i kept breaking them while trying to take them of cars at junkyard lol. is the red around the switches and door handle paint or an overlay?
