I read the archives and saw that there are supposed to be torx head screws to be removed from the door panel to get at the power door locks. Lo and behold, after staring at my door for awhile, I cannot find ANY screws, torx or non-torx. I have an 88 GTA.

Were those archive articles for formulas perhaps, while the GTA has a different door panel setup ?

Thanks

 

Since I havent actually pulled one of those panels...

There are at least 3 holding the armrest on. There might be plastic covers hiding the holes. As for the plate where the inner doorhandle and doorlock are, I am not sure. Mine has a few torx screws. Look for screws somewhere holding that plate in.

 

The other screw is hidden behind a metal cap in the door handle area also there is another screw behind the bird.

Thanks. Yes, there are several tabs and plates which LOOK like they might pop off with the flat blade of a screwdriver. Fingernails don't pop them off. Tried. Guess I'll have to gently try screwdriver or knife and hope for the best.
