Anybuddy know how to take the rear quarter panels off? I thought it would be just to unscrew some screws, but there this thing that hooks onto the seats when you fold it up. Somebuddy please tell me how.

Why i have the feeling you should take off the rear quarter window aswell to remove those panel?

I havent done it myself, i just read it somewhere

For the interior, taking the windows out is what you'll have to do.

The rear quarter panel skin is spot welded in many many spots and if you didn't know that, I wouldn't even begin to replace the quarter panel yourself as it involves a good amount of skill to do it right. It is double layered in some spots and professional replacement of the quarter panel will cost more than your entire car 99 percent of the time.

Haha, sorry. I'm trying to talk about these, lol. These arn't mine, just someones of ebay.

you can remove them without pulling the windows but you have to be SUPER careful. i did it when i replaced my speakers

there is some adhesive on the front side next to the door that youll need a paint spatula or something to slice through.

question, why be careful of the window?? will it just fall out? and how do you go about removing and
re-installing the windows?

Hi there... just got done doing this myself... I tried to do the panel removal without the window coming out and bit the bullet -- nothing ventured, nothing gained. I am here to tell you that removing the windows is THE way to do this. You will spend less time and aggravation. Clarks has a great write up and if you get stuck PM me. The rope trick is spot on. Both out and back in less than 5 minutes each.

I'll PM you once I try to pull them off. But what about that seat latcher thing? How does that come off?

The post for the rear? Leave that there... just take the rubber stop and spacer off.

Po924S

Sweet. Do I just pull them off?

75ohm

That's how you do it, yes, Sir./

Po924S

Ok, I finally have tooken one off. But I noticed that they left some extra viynl and glued it onto the metal body. Do I need to do that when I put them back on the car?

FRporscheman

You can, but you don't need to.

I did because I was concerned about it pulling in when I replaced the window...
