Project MX5 - How to Remove External Door Handles, Mirrors, Trim & Door Cards
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 21 ต.ค. 2017
- In this quick video I show you how to strip your doors down and remove the door cards, external door handles, rubber trim and mirror.
In my case I did this to prep for wrapping. It's a lot easier to wrap your doors, mirrors and handles if they're not on the car. To reinstall, simply reverse the process.
Please keep in mind that the car is not secure all the time that the handles are removed.

note for anyone with an NA following along, our mirrors don't pop out quite like NB's, the way to get na mirrors is a screwdriver and a rag against the paint, screwdriver goes in a cutout on the bottom of the mirror stalk base, that plastic cover comes loose and you can undo bolts from there
Thanks mate, that was really helpful.
We found the clip to disconnect the mirror wiring was really hard to detach by reaching up behind the panel. So we took the main speaker out in a few seconds - then you can see what you are doing.
Another tip is while you've got it all taken apart is to lube the rails for the window sliders. It's a common problem on MX5s to have slow windows. You can buy specialist grease but we just sprayed some silicon down the slot and it worked a treat.
I've found in the past that spray silicon will seem to work but quickly washes out
Thank you, I'm prepping for paint so I needed this video!
Good to see my friend who subscribed just so they could dislike every video the moment it's uploaded is back. Life must be pretty awesome for you!
Aww that's just lame. Don't worry though, the dislike won't stop the rest of us from appreciating the great quality of your videos :)
Meh. Every interaction helps :) They'd be better off unsubscribing and not loading the videos at all.
Switched to my other yt accounts and gave you some more likes ;)
+BaconJunkee Haha this guy :) I appreciate the support.
Hey mate! at 6:54 that's where your central locking actuator sits. Because thats exactly where mine is. Central locking was optional back then. So thats why that foam covering is there.
Interesting! Maybe the central locking in my car is aftermarket because I have central locking.
just replaced my door handle in 20 mins with thanks to and your excellent video. thank you
Great instruction video and footage. To those out there that have a NB with an electromechanical lock, because some do, everything is the same, but the wire harness is tricky. I'm just going to clip and crimp the wires.
Please put the miata version (nb) in the title so it’s easier to search for the right video. Thanks
Wow mate, this is really well explained! Just what i needed, clear and proper footage even when it is was difficult to film! Congrats!
Didn't know you owned a NB (once). I am looking for one too. Great cars aren't they can't find much negative feedback on it except for the rust.
Thanks for the very clear instructions, great help
Thanks, the tip with the mirror was very helpful 😊
Well done, and easy to follow.
Thank you.
Nice work. That wrap looks awesome.
+matube73 thanks :) it looks so good in person. Really hard to capture in video.
Man i think the wheel and tyre package is going to look good with the grey wrap.
I wasn't sure how the bronze would go with the grey at first but I'm really happy with it!
i am currently ripping my mx5 apart and was strugeling with the mirrors... didnt thought to swing them in the other direction...kinda dumb xD. thank you!
+BIGape27 you’re welcome mate! Glad the video helped.
glad to see you back :)!
Thanks mate! Been flat out lately with a bunch of stuff. Hoping to keep more frequent content going from now on.
Was just thinking I needed to learn how to do this. Awesome video!
Thanks mate. Glad it was helpful. The good thing about cars is there's two of just about everything, so I can sus stuff out on one side, then do a video on the other. lol
Maybe not that relevant to the video but my plastic piece surrounding the mirror is loose and vibrates a lot when going over bumps or listening to music. Is there anyway to tighten down the plastic piece?
Do you happen to know how to untwist the mirror if it folds up while off?
My mx5 don't have electric side mirror so would I have to do all this?
Nice, I need to fix the broken piece on one of my mirrors. It goes faster at 2x the speed. LOL
If you can be bothered to remove the speaker you'll be able to loosen the mirror connector in daylight, which i recommend as i found it a real bitch to undo
Good tip!
Seems relatively straight forward, I imagine the steps are more or less the same for most other vehicles?
+Mitchell Denham it’s been pretty much the same for the two other cars I’ve done it on. BRZ and GC8 Impreza.
for door handles and window trims is it the same for a NA miata i cant seem to find a video:(
Hey, what wheels are on the Mazda? Look great
hey great content! having trouble removing the screws from the mirrors, can anyone help? many thanks! :)
hey man! love the rims! what brand and size are they?
