Let’s talk Door Panel Disassembly
Removing the door panel to replace speaker grille
- little round plugs located along the perimeter of the door
- push in the centers of each plug, that releases the clips
- also 2 screws (Torx) hidden behind a beauty insert on the large handle you use to close the door
- lift straight up
- remove the door cable and the 3 wiring harnesses and viola’, it is off

Bonus! Volvo Facts
- Volvo revolutionised safety in cars when engineer Nils Bohlin created the three-point seat belt in 1959. Bohlin’s innovative Y-shaped design protects the chest, pelvis and shoulders upon impact. We waived the patent for the pioneering design so that other car manufacturers could use it too. Volvo’s commitment to safety has saved an estimated one million lives
