    Drivers door switch panel needed

    I pushed the lock button and the switch fell out of the the panel so I'm looking for a non-broken plastic switch panel for my drivers door.
    I noticed the spots where the screws that hold the switches in were not fully intact and now one finally broke, if you see one just post it here or if you have one let me know.
    Thanks,
    Tom

      My fix for those are using a long threaded screw. Cut the head off and epoxy the screw (which is basically a stud now) into the correct position. Use a nut that fits to secure the rest.

        That's a great idea! Never thought of that. I'll have to remember that the next time I have to take a door panel off.

            I guess that's worth a try when I take the panel off to replace the window motor.

                ah... the aeros still have screws holding the switches to the panel.

                  In case you didn't know, you'll have to drill three holes in the door to access the bolts for the motor. It can be done without drilling, but it's a major PITA.

                      I did that today, thanks for the tip.
                      I guess this can go away or get locked now.
