Removing Interior Panels

[Optimzer]

Hey Everyone,

I would like to do some interior work but need to remove some panels. Removing some of them (ie - door panels, pillar panels, etc) has me worried that when I put them back it\'ll never be good as factory and will start rattling sometime in the future. I HATE rattles (Angry smiley needed..). Has anyone experienced this at all? Also, I\'d like some tips on how to go about removing and replacing panels so that I don\'t break or damage anything. I read somewhere about \'trunk tape\' but I want to avoid that as using that will mean I have a rattle (which I want to avoid). Thank yoU!

I\'ve removed the panels in my wife\'s 3 and in my 6 and no rattles whatsoever. Just be careful not to break any clips, and if you do, just get replacement ones so that there is no chance of a loose panel. As for the actual process of removing the panels, it is quite simple, there are a number of write up\'s on how to do it, some with pics.
