im trying to take the door panels off and i dont know how to get the manual window roller downer things off. any ideas?

dr0x

I havent looked, but Id imagine there is a little silver pin on the inside of the roller handle. Thats how a lot of cars (I actually havent seen another style) are setup. I usually pop them out with 2 flat head screw drivers.

You mean the Jesus clips for the window cranks?

You use a Jesus clip tool, or a pick and pull the clips off parallel to the door panel

Project84

they call that thing a Jesus tool?

i dont say any jesus clip of any sort. all there is is a handle, no screws or clips.

Icemark

First put down the beer you stole from your daddy's refrig. "Mindow" and "don't say any clip"??? You shouldn't be drinking and working on a car at the same time.

Again the clips are between the window crank shield trim ring and on the crank itself. It is somewhat "C" shaped around the shaft of the window crank.

You will need to push the door panel in a little so you can access and see the clip.

Icemark

Its common in the car stereo industry to call the clips Jesus clips, as when you pop one off it tends to go flying and you say "Oh Jesus, there goes another one".

hahah, sorry about the typo's and im not drinking.

hey, does $210 sound like a good proce for all interior and the sunroof?

steve's dog

oh, and im sorry. but i just looked agian and STIIIIILLLLLLL dont see any of what you're talking about. maybe we're not talking about the same thing. are you talking about the thing you turn to roll the window up and down??

best way to pull these clips is to use a strip of old
towel . pull it between the door panel and crank and
it will catch the clip and pull it out.
much faster than the tool for the job!
my 2 cents

when did i say "mindow?"

steve's dog

ok, i'll try that....any certian angle to do it at or anything?

Icemark

The window crank handle is what I am talking about. It is what you use to roll the window down if you don't have power windows.

It is very very simple and easy to see. Do you see on the handle the plastic shaft part that slides into the door?

This is where you will see the clip

ok, ive been getting the interior out pretty easily so far. but this is the only setback. i still cant get it off and its making me really mad. can anyone put it in lamen terms for me?

steve's dog

if i could see the shaft then there would be no door panel and then i wouldnt need to take the roller off. explain it like im retarded.

steve's dog

if you aren't already.....

Icemark

do you know what a C clip looks like???

Do you see the metal clip??? Again it is on the shaft of the handle.

Do you see the shield? Its the plastic washer between the door panel and the crank handle.

The C clip or Jesus clip is between the shield and the handle on the shaft.

Man, I don't know how much simpler I can describe it. If I had one I'd take a picture.

It is very very simple

D00d it's hella easy.. Icemark is schoolin ya and you aren't hearing him..

I usualy use a little standard screwdriver.. push in the door panel and then stick the screwdriver on the clip while pushing up.. I have never had a problem getting one off..

steve's dog

YAY!!! i got it with a towel!!!thanks...but about the price of that interior.....

steve's dog

he problem was i couldn't get the door panel to move it. so i couldnt see anything. but i stuffed a towel in there and it made the clip stick out enough for a screwdriver to pop it off.

Dog. The Haynes Manual describes this quite well If your still not comprehending after several defined descriptions.
