imr Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 i want to remove the doors on a 1970 Monte that has Power Windows and Power locks. What needs to be done. Does the harness remove easy and is there any rivets that need drilling. The goal to get the car ready for paint. will be removing the doors and fixing the door hinges or replacing them. any thing else I should look for when the door is removed? Door seals maybe window seals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LS5 Posted March 12, 2019 Share Posted March 12, 2019 Hey Antoine, if you remove the door panel and have the window all the way up almost. there are Squeeze plugs on the ends of the PW motor and PDL actuator. when squeezing the plugs gently wiggle from side to side as you gently pull and they will come undone. Then you can gently align all the wires from the door switches to inside the door and then open the door and remove the two screws or plastic push pins at 12 oclock and 6 oclock positions on the rubber boot between the door. once those are off gently pull the rubber boot and slowly pull the wires through the 2" hole from inside the door that you released.

imr Posted March 12, 2019 Author Share Posted March 12, 2019 sounds simple enough. I guess it's about the same on a chevelle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monteman1971 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Structurally, the Monte and the Chevelle are the same car from the cowl back......just different external sheet metal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
