shopman1 Posted August 5, 2003 Report Share Posted August 5, 2003 Has anyone taken the control pads off that are on the doors? To be clear that would be the pad that has the window controls door lock etc. It looks like if you just pull up they will come out however I don't want to reck them. Maby the door pannel needs to come off - has anyone done this as yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackhawk Posted August 5, 2003 Report Share Posted August 5, 2003 I have not taken the SS control pads off, but I did in my other Silverado and they look exactly the same. They just pop right out and are held in by some retaining clips; the door panels don’t need to come off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shopman1 Posted August 5, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2003 Carbon fiber or Billet? Man great guess - Carbon Fiber! I am having the base color done in Arrival Blue. I have seen a prototype and it look very cool, at least to me. I will post pictures when it all comes together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shopman1 Posted August 6, 2003 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2003 The correct way to get the 2003 pads off is to take the door panel off because the pad has a clip on the outside and a flat head screw on the inside that holds it to the door panel!
