Inner door panel removal?

[Mid_Life_Crisis]

This seemed like the most likely place to find someone who had done this.
Has anyone removed the inner door panel on the front doors? I`m not referring to the first layer, I`m talking about the smaller black plastic one with the window motor mounted on it.
Are there any odd bits that make putting it back on a pain? I ask because I`m finally going to get around to finishing up a project I started ages ago and want to put some sound deadener on the inside of the outer door panel, but not if putting that piece back on is a b****.

I was in your exact perdicament (sp?). I went as far as unbolting the window bolts and the glass fell (scary as hell). Then I decided against it because my sons hands could fit almost everywhere needed to put sound deadening. Also, when I replaced the window bolts the window still went up, but it was like it was louder against the seal. My advice...find someone with small hands to lay it for you. Besides, it doesn't have to be pretty and It can overlap. Just my (2cents)

I never pulled that panel, but I did pull the plastic stick on cup thing near the latch. that let me get some more pieces of dymat in place

there are several how to's on the web, to avoid having the window drop down on you, just use some duct tape to tape it up in the closed position so you have access to the entire inner side of the metal door skin to apply the deadener.

It sounds like if I decide to go for it I should start with the window in the down position and lift it up with a prop ready to go in.

Actually, the suggestion above sounds good. First take off the door panel. Next, then roll the window back to the top. Then, possibly duct tape it so that it will stay in position (outside if tinted). I really think it is not worth the effort because you can get to almost all of it through the other holes and such. The holes for he speakers allow quite a bit of access and the other plastic cup thing allow access as well.
