    Fantastic video! You bailed me out when I got stuck at the arm rest/pull removal because I was watching another creator who wasn't using a Cayman S. The snaps around the perimeter were insane and I would likely have bailed on the project if I didn't see your struggle as well! Thank you so much!

    The trick is to use a thin metal pry tool and a wedge shaped one at the same time on each clip to make them pop open. I ripped my door apart the first time too,. Looks like you separated the two skins to some degree?

    What was all that stuff that fell out when you pulled the bottom of the door pannel out?? Also it was VERY unclear what part you replaced. For a DIY it would have been helpful to see the old part next to the new part to show what was wrong/broken and why it needed to be replaced.

    +Christopher McChesney it was unclear about the part that was replaced because, as I said in this video, that repair is being covered in a separate video. This one is only meant to show how to remove the panel. 😁 And I’m not sure what that stuff was… seemed like the panel had been removed before and it was possibly some dried up sealant or something that shouldn’t have been there 🤷‍♂️
