:FAQ: How to Remove CRX Door Sill (56K Death)
This is fairly simple. There are a total of 13 bolts that have to be removed, and that is the main part of the removal.
Step #1:
Here are some pics just to show you what is coming off if you don't know what I am talking about.
Step #2:
Locate the six bolts that are inside of the door. They are on top of the door sill and remove them.
Step #3:
You will have to remove the back wheel to get at the back bolt. There is no clearance in there to fit even the smallest screwdriver in there on the stock 13" wheels. When the wheel is off take your screwdriver and unscrew the two screws in the rear wheel well.
Step #4:
There are four bolts under the car that need to be removed. If you look under the door sill you will see four bolts. Remove them.
Step #5:
Now from the back of the sill (near the back wheel well) work your way around the edges of the sill pulling it out as you go. When you have the end off all you have to do is pull it out to the right and then back towards you.
Step #6:
Here is just a note if you are putting the sill back on. There is a rubber clip near the front of the door that is a real pain in the ass. You will have to hold it out when you slide the sill back on because if it is in the wrong place then it won't fit right.

Unfortunately, people spend money on manuals for the express purpose of gleaning information that crxforum is providing. Might as well have it available free, here.

thats the only problem,unless its a sticky its going to be off the pages in a couple of days.it just makes a hell of a lot more sense to wait until the question is auctually asked,and the door trim question came up a while ago and was answerd,verry poorley compared to this answer.

why are you getting so uppity about a FAQ post? If you don't like it, don't frikkin read it. Personally I think it's good information, and it's good that someone put it here.
