    Default Door Panel Fix Escapades

    So I fixed my driver's side door panel last night. I was installing it this morning before going out for the rest of the day and had everything put away and was sitting in the car patting myself on the back for a job well done. Except for one thing, I forgot to reattach the door opening mechanism.

    I partially pulled back the panel and got it hooked up. When I was putting the screw back in (Behind the power mirror switch) I think I stripped in with a #15 star driver. At least I didn't get it in real tight. Hopefully I can back it out with some needle nose or a slightly bigger driver, when I get a replacement screw.

    Does anyone know if I was using the wrong tool (#15 star driver)?

    It's a Torx T20 or T25, if I'm not mistaken.

    best, whit

    Hopefully it is the T20 and I can still back it out. Thanks Whit!
