(Door Panel Removal) Annoying Torx Screw behind Door Handle fell back?

[One_Supra_1]

Hey guys, I have a bit of a problem.

When I was removing my door panels, I was pulling back on the panel while unscrewing that door handle torx screw and managed to get it off, but im pretty sure the white part (the part that usually spins in place when you try to unscrew it) fell back into the door itself. All I have for both doors now is the black torx screw and the plastic black washer part.

Does anyone know how to get behind the actual speakers? I assume if I dont fish them out behind there its gonna start rattling everywhere. Or does anyone know the part number for that little white bit?

Any help is appreciated.

Can’t help with getting behind the speakers but is this the part you’re talking about?

I have the same problem. When i was taking the torx screw out for the door garnish. It fell back into the door

I took off my door panel today and that part(90118-WA117) is spinning freely. Any suggestions?

Same thing happened to me. I think this is the one we're talking about, right behind the interior door handle? Mine broke after spinning and all I was left with was the black rubber part.

I think the part number is right, but I just ordered some through Amazon:

Great! I’ll order this. Any ideas on freeing the screw? Currently the screw is spinning freely.

Also any ideas on what the part number is for the screw?

If that screw is in the door and the white part fell back all you can really do is pull on the door panel while unscrewing it and it’ll eventually spin out, but all of the clips and other screws have to be undone first

I just held the panel in while grabbing behind the washer that's attached to the screw and used some light pressure on pulling it out as you're unscrewing. A forked trim tool or an angled pick - as long as you can get behind it and pull as you're unscrewing if that makes sense.

Once you get the actual screw out, It should be reusable.

you were actually able to hold the washer? Should I just pull it and get my hands in there and try? I have everything else taken out. I’m going to wait till I get replacement parts and try again

If you can, sure. See if you can wedge something between the door and door panel while gently pulling the door off, it should grab the threads and eventually come out.
