I have a 1999 Miata and have watched many KZfaqs about removing the door panel. Most of the vids I saw showed a second screw in the handle assembly. Mine only had one showing. This vid hits the nail on the head with the second screw hidden under a piece of velcro inside the handle that I did not know was even there. Today, I peeled the velcro back and Voila, there was the hidden screw! Thanks so much! I was going nuts looking for a second screw visible. BRAVO!

I really appreciate you showing the clips up close because I am currently trying to buy a few more on Amazon and there are so many sets that have multiple types and I wanted to know what I need to look for. Thanks!

Thank you. Was planning to add a sound deadening mat to my door, you make it seem really easy now.

It's been 3 years but did you install the deadening? I wondered where the best place would be to glue it on :)

@@R-SXX I have done it on two 99 miatas, I used Dynamat, basically I tried to cover as much area on the inside portion of the outter door skin and also used some around the speaker hole. Speaking of I always use the Rockford Fosgate 8in mids in the door with 1in tweeters. I use a footwell Rockford Fosgate 8in sub in a footwell box for the passenger side. I put my two power amps in the trunk and its a rockin bad ass sound system

You’re awesome for this! Even I’m a mechanic and could figure it out on my own it is always much faster watching someone do it first

Perfect thanks. One screw on my handle was in a different place and just in a hole at the bottom of the handle and not under that piece of felt you lifted up but apart from that my '04 NB Arctic was identical.

Thanks MM. I have manual window cranks so I've got to find the right way to remove those before lifting up the door card.

I'm lucky b/c the guy across the street from me is an upholsterer. Lent me a pry wrench and some picks and I got it off. Now, I have to see if I can get into the metal from behind to work out some dents, lube the mechanism, and install some Hush Mat.

Thanks for the reminder of how to do this. I need to take my driver's one off to make may for a flat door card so I stop hitting my elbow on the handle/armrest in tight turns. You got any tips about doing that?

Not yet, but I will try to make one soon. Thanks for the suggestion.

When I close my door it definitely sounds like an older car door closing (rattley?). Is this because things are loose? Is there a way to fix this?

@MiataMan 3 жыл бұрын

Sometimes, the back roller that is attached to the window becomes loose and rattled around. It would be a great idea to remove the window and tighten everything up. Good time to lubricate the mechanism too.

@Toe-roll Жыл бұрын

Does the door have to be removed from the car in order to do this? I have to replace my power mirror and if I don’t have to remove the door that would be a blessing lol

@MiataMan Жыл бұрын

The door does NOT need to be removed. 👍 I just happened to have one in the garage to use as an example.
