Model: BMW Serie 5 E39 - Years 1995-2003
Part: Bodywork
Operation: How to remove the plastic door trim panel

The following guide shows us how to remove the plastic trim panel from a car door. Care must be taken when removing the panel as it is fragile and can be damaged. Essentially the operation consists of dissolving the plastic adhesive under the coating. If the operation is carried out with caution and attention, there is no risk of damaging the bodywork. A heat jet gun can be used to perform it or with bare hands. You have to gently lift the grille and slide it from one end of the cover to the other and then pull it completely off the vehicle with your hands.
