Default Door Panels

My passenger-side glass seems to be getting a little loose. Sometime after Christmas I plan on taking off the door panel to fix this problem. This will be the first time I've had to take the door panel off. Are there any "gotchas" that I should be aware of??? From what I see in my assembly manual it looks pretty straight forward.

Thanks.

Signguy,
Yes they come off in less than five minutes. Here is a $1.00 tip for reinforcing the armrest nose attachment on your 1979: a speednut.
