Removal of carpet on door panels

by Milt Volosyn
(Carmel, IN USA)

I have a 78 standard coupe. I'm going to put new carpet throughout the car and want to replace the carpeting on the doors. The door panels are fine and perhaps just need a quick re-dye, but my question is how is the carpeting on the bottom of those panels attached and is it possible to remove them without damaging the door panel itself.

The panels are glued on . You can buy the new panels just made for them .JUST START ANYWHERE YOU CAN get under and use a putty knift and scrape them loose
