So, despite the turbulent situation in our region, motorists continue to seek silence in their cars... this time a car came to me - an Opel Astra H...
in my opinion, 2007, with a mileage of about 150 thousand km... but in simply perfect condition throughout the interior... no one has ever tinkered with the doors, which was very pleasing... during all this time there has been a minimum of dust and dirt in the doors - after all, the build quality is Opel at a high level... my task was to produce door shock absorbers, the acoustics remain old... as a result, vibration isolation Shumoff M2 and sound absorber Germeton 7 were chosen as materials... I initially wanted a sound absorber Germeton A15, but on the advice of “experienced” I settled on the 7th, it was the likelihood of problems with installing cards later...
Such a car has never come to me before. so I had to look for disassembly manuals... one of the most useful and accessible videos is
but despite this, I decided to post my little manual... so here’s a list of everything you need: - star key (Torx) 20 - hair dryer - materials (Shumoff M2 (vibration insulation) - 40 sheets, sound absorber Germeton 7 - 3 sheets)
1) with something thin we pull the plug of the door handle cup towards us, under it we unscrew the self-tapping screw with an asterisk key 2) we pull up the decorative plug of the door handle... someone pries it up, I just pulled it up with my thumbs and that’s it... 3) we unscrew it with a key - with an asterisk, two self-tapping screws fixing the handle 4) remove the corner of the door, there is a tweeter in it... just pull it towards you, it is attached to 3 clips... disconnect the connector from the speaker 5) unscrew the two self-tapping screws on the side of the door with an asterisk key 6) unscrew two with an asterisk key self-tapping screw from the bottom of the door 7) after removing the card, use a star key to unscrew the three self-tapping screws securing the speaker
1) pull up the decorative plug of the door handle... someone pries it up, I just pulled it up with my thumbs and that’s it... use an asterisk key to unscrew the two self-tapping screws that fix the handle 2) with something thin, pull the plug of the door handle cup towards you, and unscrew it with a key - a self-tapping screw with an asterisk 3) remove the window handle and unscrew the self-tapping screw under the speaker 4) after removing the card, use an asterisk key to unscrew the three self-tapping screws securing the speaker
Now for the nuances - after unscrewing the screws at the bottom, the door card comes off a little in the area of the speaker, carefully pull it back and snap off the clips around the perimeter; all the Kliss surprisingly survived
