Assembling Door Panel

Model: Skoda Fabia Mark2, 5J - Years 2007-2014
Part: Door trim panel

The tools required for this operation are: a flat-head screwdriver, a Phillips screwdriver, a Torx key, and a spatula. Dismantle the handle cover and unscrew the retaining screws located under the covering plastic. Also unscrew all the screws of the panel located on the sides and, using the spatula, gently remove the panel along the edges, which should be carefully pulled upwards. Remove the mirror cover on the pillar. Carefully remove the electrical contacts by disconnecting the connectors, taking care not to tear them. Refit the new panel starting with the connection of the electrical cables. Position the panel upwards and then push it down until it clicks into place. Reinsert the screws.
