Driver DOOR BRAKE Replacement Tips? S70

posted by  someone claiming to be cn on  Tue Mar 13 02:15 CST 2007 [RELATED]

Hi guys,

My driver door, after 9 years of service, and thousands of times opening and closing has decided to swing freely.

The bottom line is the "Door Brake" = "Door Check" = "Door Strap" = "Middle Hinge" (Yes, there are many names for this thing).

It is mentioned here:

I want to replace the Door Brake. BUT the QUESTION is:
Do I need to remove the INNER door panel? From the picture, it looks like I can get away without removing the INNER door panel but I might be wrong?
Any opinions?
