How to Remove Honda Civic EF / CRX Door Cards

Here is how to remove the door cards (interior door panels) from a Honda Civic EF (87-91) and CRX (83-91).

Here are the location of all the screws you will need to remove. They are all Phillips head.

**NOTE: If you have manual window winders, you will also need to remove those.

Now, before you do #7, you will need to pop the door card off so that you can lift it up out of the top channel to get to the screw inside the seal. There are a couple of trim clips around the edges of the door card, especially in the bottom corners, so run your hand along the edge as you pull out and they should pop off:

Then you will be able to lift the door card up and out, and get to screw 7.

7) Don’t forget to all pop off the cover that goes around the seatbelt so that you can pass the seatbelt through the channel.
