THIS IS the best video I've seen. I'm 75 and DETEST all the different connector latches, especially such as down on the transmission in the mud / oil/ junk and you cannot SEE them to figure out how to release them. THANKS again!!!
Hands down the best video ever created for the Chevy 00-06 door panel removal. I'm replacing the window control switch this video helped me knock it out of the park. Reading the comments helps alot people leave great tips in the comments.👍
All came out as shown. Thanks for great video. I little tricky to see the connectors until I got that larger one off. But the demo on the hinged clip helped a lot.
than yours isnt a gmt800. you prolly got some else. but i dont like how his nut is all worn n nasty by the hamdle. like uhm this is an american truck its gunna be metric and it should be 7mm. not a 9/32nds like what tf mine aint worn out and i always used 7mm on these
You might want to mention that with that last large connector with the swing arms, there is a little button behind the top that holds it in place. That is... when it's all in one piece and not broken like yours. Because I didn't know about it, I forced mine and now it's broken too. 😢
You do know that light on the left corner instead of unhooking the connector you could just turn it and take the bulb out with that and it’s way easier and faster. Also instead of the little cubby compartment coming off you could pry on the right side of the housing for light and pull to right and that is also easier and faster too.
Instead of removing the wire from the light socket in the door panel. I twisted the whole socket and removed the whole assembly. It was easier than unclipping that wire.
For some reason after reinstalling the panel none of my switches to the door or mirrors work now. I have no clue what the issue is and haven't read anything about it on the forums
I watched your & another video. When removing the window/lock/mirror switch assy, there is a clip on the rear, bit a screw holding it in on the front. That the door panel needs to be removed first.
Funny, I was replacing mirrors on one today and a nut fell into the door because of the way it was designed and halfway through I realized it would be cheaper to go buy a new nut for the mirror than to take off the panel and potentially break it because it’s old and brittle
Love ur videos, but, when I saw you with that paint scrapper in your hand, I cringed!🤣 Max, get a set of trim removal tools. Heck I'll gift you a set!!!
@@MaxF01 😂 Honestly, if it wasn't for my son, and my neighbor, I would still be using putty knives and screwdrivers. I think I irritated them both to the point they forced me to get a set!
@@fishn365 haha its one of those things where its like, well this can get the job done, but im sure they make it a lot easier and are better for the interior to not scratch it and such
@@MaxF01 absolutely. My son does installs on emergency vehicles as a second job. Was doing that before starting his career in law enforcement, following in my footsteps. Between him, and my neighbor, who is also a retired LEO, and who knows how to fix pretty much anything, collectively we have probably every tool 😄
@@fishn365 thats awesome!! Having the right tools can make a world of difference!! And thats awesome that you and your son were LEOs, respect and thanks to you guys🙏🏼 my dad is also retired LEO.
@@tomo4584 hey thats actually what im planning on doing! I already got it printed out and it looks like it should work great, also i was trying to figure out how to go about putting the snake on, like if i should carve it and then paint it or burn it but i think im just going to stain the background black and then carve out the snake
I just hate Chevrolet's cheap plastic just asking to break I got a 2000 town car panels are bullet proof I wish American cars would continue to have quality parts

Perfectly planned and executed instructional video. It sure saved me a lot of time and frustration!

If it can be assembled, it can be disassembled apart.
Good video

Right from the jump.. 1st step… mine does not have that screw or cover. Who else hates auto manufacturers who make every model different?

Great video straight to the point and accurate.

How do you remove the power switch panel on the Silverado door?

Thank you for the info, as it will be very helpful when I get to the disassembly.

Same! Did you ever figure it out??
Good video! Thanks Man.
Thank you no problem!
Is the the storage space where you can put papers, pens, or even trash on the door panel removable?
Yes, there’s a screw on the bottom, then you have to push and finagle it out
I watched your & another video.

No problem!

Damn, i cant get the switch unit out to replace it...
Love ur videos, but, when I saw you with that paint scrapper in your hand, I cringed!🤣

Thank you Joshua!
Nothing to do with this video but could you make a tutorial on how to make a join or die flag?
I think i could do that, im trying to figure out how to go about it and if i can figure something out I’ll definitely make it!!
@@MaxF01 one thing I’ve thought about is printing each part of the snake on paper and laying it out like a big stencil.

i did this and now my door doesnt open
Bolt is a 7mm also
