Anyone Know....

Does anyone know how to take out the doors of the c43?
I'm most concern removing the electrical wires.

Thanks in advance.

Two bolts on each hinge and then just remove the wires from their plugs and pull out the plastic clips that hold them onto the door shell.

I replaced my doors myself. Its a little challenging lining them up. Youll need two people to hold the door for you as you screw it in. Make sure they dont lean on it too much while holding because they might dent.

Before anything make sure you take the picture of the setup after you remove the door panel so youll know which way exactly the wires went

PJmak thanks for the info. I was worried pulling the wires would be difficult.
But sounds like putting the doors back on is harder, but I'm ok with that.

Thanks.

Removing wires wasnt an issue at all. Just make sure they go back in exactly the same way because you might not be able to put the door panel back on.

This is why you should take a pic of it all before removing

Sounds good. After watching a few episodes of American restoration I now take pictures of everything I'm going to take apart. So yes I will be taking pictures.
Thanks again for the info.
