Yeah the door panel is all one piece. It might have plastic rivets on the back the you can melt and take it off but I'm not sure. Why do you want to take it off?

To get it off... you have to remove the door panel... and I think as mentioned above that it is plastic riveted on from the back side.

thanks for the info..the reason i was going to take it off is because there are a few minor scuffs and i thought i could just replace that one part. But you can't even see them in the pic so i want worry about it.

So are there replacement door panels available anywhere? And why is it the guys on TV can always find whatever they want? They say some junk like "from Year One Industries" or sumthin and wham-o, awesome, affordable brand new repro door panels!
