I am replacing my driver door with another. The "new" door had the harness cut in the door jam under the round connnector in the door jamb.
My question is how does that connector come apart? I assume that I should be able to disconnect it there and reconnect the new door there... Maybe not? Looking to figure out where the best spot to undo the harness? Anyone do this yet??

Thanks
 






When I pulled my door off, I disconnected it on the door side. If I remember right, there is a long bolt that goes down from the top of the big black round looking thing. That is the plug. After removing the bolt, I think it has a couple tabs that need to be pried a little, then the bottom part with wires, should just pull off.
 






Awesome! Thank you. I saw that little cap there and it never hit me to remove it... That did it. Now to remove the old door tomorrow and hang the new. Have to find some new hinge pins while I have it off. That will be alot easier.
