Dave's Adventures in Door Panels

My wife has an 82 911SC. One of the door-mounted speakers (aftermarket) was really badly blown, so as an early Christmas present I decided to replace them for her. When I did that, somehow I jammed the lock in the open position--the knob and button will not move. The obstruction appears to be at the latch end of things, as I can see the rod trying to move slightly.

Anyway, I dug back into the door after getting it just about all the way back together again. I figured the Pelican article on door card replacement could use some pictures, so I took a bunch. Here they are:


The wiring for the window switch doesn't match that found in Bentley, nor that on our site.



This is for the driver's window. Again, the wiring doesn't match the references I have available. You can see the aftermarket tweeter to the left of the picture.



This is my solution for unscrewing the bezel or "escutcheon". Also works reasonably well for the ones that hold the switches into the dashboard of my 914.



...More pics to come in further posts!
