Mercedes Benz Interior Door Panel Removal

GENERAL

Types of door panels

John Green writes:

Mercedes door trims can be divided into two specific groups. Those that you pull up to get off and those that you pull out to get off. And then of course there is always an exception to the rule.

The following are of the pull out style where you need to very carefully undo each clip with a trim tool.

W120, W121, W180, W105, W110, W111, W112, W108, W109, W114, W115.

The in-between one is the W123 where you need to undo the trim clips on the door trim and then pull it up.

All the others are the pull up style, where they are pulled up after undoing all the bits that hold them on.

W116, W126, W201, W124, W202, W210, W140, etc, etc, etc.

W108

Gerry Van Zandt wrote this very clear description of how the W108/W109 door panels are removed. But these instructions are applicable to most all older Mercedes.

Roll the window down entirely into the door. Remove the armrest & door handle assembly via the screws holding them on.

Be careful in removing the molding immediately behind the door opening handle. ...more
