Rapido help ! My front gas locker door has been leaking for some time at top on right and never picked up on habitation. The top of door has been leaking and the right wooden panel has gone rotten at base. does anyone know how to remove wooden panel can see screws but not sure how to disassemble. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You need to prise off the circular plastic caps gently and underneath you will find screws the caps have two plastic spigots that hold it in place.😊. Usually the panel will have some other fixings that you probably won’t be able to get at as it was all assembled prior to dropping the body onto it so you will have to very gentle and carefully ease it out🤔

Thanks a lot, have you gone it ? Would there be any other fixings from behind, do you think.

no not done one on a gas locker but I am a carpenter and have removed all sorts of panels in my vans over the years and nearly always there will be fixing you cannot get at and have to improvise to get the panel out 😊
good luck with it and take it slowly😊🤞🤞🤞
