Interior Quarter Panel Trim Panel (Rear, Lower)

This ois damaged and am looking fro repair or replacement. What is the small hole for?

 

That’s for the optional wind deflector that snaps in across the rear seats. I have one and it works well.

 

that was easy, thanks

 

I'm sorry to see the damage, if you replace this yourself please do a write up I would like to see how this panel comes off.

 

If im unsure how a panel comes off, I look for a used one on Ebay. They usually list pictures showing the backside and how it clips. Then I know it comes off.

 

A set of trim removal tools is a must-have.

If anyone can explain how to stop this, please chime in. Here's what happened:

 

That link didn't work regardless, so here's what I found.... but in a different color.

 

This is a video by Klaus at Top Hydraulics that shows how to remove the quarter trim panels. In this case, for top cylinder replacement. It's a good video and Top Hydraulics is the only source I'd use for the top cylinders. Mike Brewer also did a video with him on Wheeler Dealers.
He's a great guy, too. Extremely helpful. Used his services for my SL500.
@XJFanMatt , hope this answers your question.
