How do you take the doors off of a 2000 Honda Civic DX you need to get your window back on track?

Answer 1

The 2000 may not be much different from my 91 in that you don't take the doors off the car, you take the inner door trim off the doors. Remove any screws you can find around the handle and in places you can't normally see, like up by the dash and hinges and behind the latch. Once these are out, you have to pull the inner door trim away from the sheet metal of the door starting at the bottom with your fingers or a plastic putty knife to get it started. (Again, this is how I did my 91) Being sure all screws are out, you have to pull hard to get it to start popping lose. Work your way around. When all are out, it will be hanging by a lip on the top of the door. It should then lift off the lip and come free, working it past the latch. I used silicone to attach the glass to the scissor-mounted glass rest, but raised and lowered the window a few times to see just where the two should meet. I think its best to try to put it back where the factory had it. You don't need or want much silicone, but the two surfaces must be clean so they stick together. Let it dry for a couple days before stressing the connection by using the window. To put the door panel back on, work in reverse order. Be careful to align the friction clips at the bottom before you pound them back in. The screws should line up perfectly or you've shifted it from where it was before.
