I got a Versa '09 Sedan Base through Cash for Clunkers over the summer, which I love. I just bought new 6-1/2in speakers for it, but I am having a b**** of a time getting the door panel off. The guide here was done with a versa that had power windows, so the door panel of my car is different. It doesn't have the full bucket handle with the power window switch - I removed the bucket handle it does have, but there are no screws holding the panel to the door...

Secondly I have the manual window knob, which I cannot for the life of me get off the door. I am afraid of breaking it and having to visit the dealer, with all the force I have been applying.

Is there anyone here who has taken apart the door of one of the base models that could give me a hand?

Thanks in advance -

Figured it out - Thought I would post the solution for anyone else who also has problems.

1 - The only screw holding the door panel to the door is the one in the cupholder. There are no other screws in the base door-panel.

2 - The first of the manual window handles came off quite suddenly while I was pulling the panel out of the clips that hold it - it popped right off. The rest of them I removed by pulling and wiggling them a lot, until they came off. There's a little metal clip that holds it in place, but as far as I can tell, theres no way to get the clip off, other then pulling. It goes back together just fine.

Actually there is a tool specifically made to pop off window rollers. It's cheap and will prevent problems with you breaking anything. I got mine from autozone for not even $5.

Looks like this
