This How To was performed on a 2002 supercab door. It is the same method as all other supercab doors.

Tools required:
Ratchet or air tools
Small pry bar
Flathead screwdriver
15mm socket
Torx T47 bit

Step 1.

Step 4.

Once the seatbelts have been unbolted, flip the interior panel over. Using a flathead screw driver, pop out the guide insert within the panel.

Step 6.

When you remove the plastic interior panel, it is best to replace the mounting pins, so you will need to remove the old/broken pins. Using a small pry bar, place something under the bar (Keeps from scratching the paint) and pry out the old plastic retaining pins.
