Removing rear interior panels - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Hey guys what up

Turns out some a**hole at my school was backing out and really f*cked up (put a big dent) in my rear panel right in front of the rear wheel well. It's pretty bad, but I think I can do some good by getting the interior panel out and looking at it from the inside. May be able to pop it right out. Not enough for insurance to cover and the car looks like sh*t right now.

Anyone want to help me through this crisis?

Ok first off  you may not be able to see a whole lot with the panel off. Here is how is how i did it on my 97.

First pull down tyhe seat and unscrew the 4 bolts (2 on each side). - 10mm

And then the 2 big bolts that the rear seats is attached too , take those off. - 14mm ( I believe)

Then look in the top corners and there should be a little indented area where a plastic peice resides. You have to pop it off somehow, Mine broke off when trying to get if off im sure yours will too, but this is the only way i know of.

Fourthly, you have to pull on the side that is close to the door jam, it may not seem to budge but trust me it will these are heavy duty clips that are used on the door jam side.

That shoudl be it if you have trouble PM me or just write another post.

The same thing happened to me when I removed the interior in my 95.  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='
