Replacing driver's window seal 200

Previous posts are correct--you'll have to take the door panel off. But even I was able to figure that one out on my own, so it is a truly DIY job.

While you're into the door, you should be ready with a replacement ext. door handle. They all go bad on the driver's door, but you can get an indentical one from the *rear* (used only a fraction as much) left door of a junker.

you want to avoid taking the door panel off more times than you have to. The panel is basically cardboard and tends to tear or break when you're popping off the fasteners. You might even be ready with a door speaker upgrade at the same time. Or else pop the speaker cover off (need to do this from behind) and leave it off until you have the replacement speaker. You can push the cover back on from the front once you've got the speaker in place.

There will be two (three?) fasteners in the middle of the door panel below the window sill. You have to come at these from the side, so you'll need a really long screwdriver or some other flat tool.

Good luck.
