all,

i took all the parts out of my door to clean it out and what not. and i was very determined to replace as many of the rubber parts and velvet. now im ready to put it back together but im not sure where to start. is there a tutorial video or picture thread that shows how to get all the metal bits and rubber parts back in the door?

any help is appreciated.

Use the other door as a template for reassembly?

I used to use a regular camera but with cell phone cameras it became even easier. I take pictures before, during and after disassembly. Before it was a habit, now it is a necessity. Last few years my CRS has become worse. Like Mark said though, easiest
way is the other door

thanks for all the replies...the video from Ian reminded me of how it came apart. i had both doors disassembled, so I dont even have a door to look at. i thought it would be a pretty simple re-install. My CRS is kicking in for sure. ill keep you guys posted. One thing i did note is the order in which things should go back on.
