I just did this last week on my 2014. It's pretty straightforward, the instructions are fairly good, and there's a pretty good DIY pictorial here on this diet. All you really need is a fairly good panel removal tool. About $10 at Autozone. |
Kick panel install
Hey, thanks for the info. I had the illuminated panel in my 2012, and want to put 'em in my new '14, Black Cherry (also).
Thanks, Chuck |

Panel removal tool?
That panel removal tool? I found "door trim removal tool", I see two types. One the end is notched wide then jogs down to a smaller one. And a U shaped end on one. Which is better.
Thanks TxC |

Or use the ten digits God gave ya. Those panels are not that hard to pull out.

Tool
Thanks, I've seen something similar. It's basically just to pop those fasteners upward, putting the pressure at the right point.
My Roadster came with the illuminated kick plates, and this new Coupe I just got looks bare without them. Chuck |
Attention?
Abraham Lincoln said that ?? I didn't hear it in the movie......

Kick plate Install.
Well, I got 'em installed , no big ee. The DIY info from several years ago was very helpful since the instructions that came with it leave a a lot ??? As far as the "nylon trim removal tool" , I made my own from a nylon spatula handle. Just sanded the forward edge down from both sides to a point. I had the illuminated kick plates on my previous Z, and this new one seemed naked without them.
Thanks to all |

This was super easy, I just did mine the other day and I'm not that great at working on cars.
You simply remove all the trim panels which is easy, takes a slight (literal) amount of force to pull them apart, I didn't break anything. Then you run the wire. I used a coat hanger to assist getting the wire to the drivers side but that was about it. Me (80%) and a friend (20%) tackled it in about hour |
