How to remove the center console – Lada Granta tuning and repair

Removing the standard radio in Grant Lux

The difference between grants of the luxury configuration: the MMS (multimedia system) installed from the factory. This is a 2 din device.

To remove standard acoustic grants:

• take a knife or plastic spatula to dismantle the acoustics and disconnect the decorative trims to the right and left of the radio. It is not necessary to take pictures;
• in the gap between the cover and the panel we find the head unit lock. There are two of them on both sides. Press it out with a screwdriver;
• we take out the GU on ourselves.

Everything is described in detail in the video:

Replacing the standard MMC in Grant

The process - after removing the acoustics, we install a new system.

Difficulties: you may have to finish the fastenings of the new system for VAZ ones. Plus you need the right frame. The factory MMC frame may not fit.

When you buy a new PG for your car, you need to buy a frame for it specifically for Grants. Otherwise there will be holes in the panel.

Step-by-step installation of a Lada Granta radio: how to install it yourself in standard, normal and luxury

The Granta in Standard and Norma configurations comes from the factory without a radio. AvtoVAZ did everything to simplify the installation process: it ran the power and acoustic wires, installed the antenna and threw the wire into the cabin. All that remains is to plug in the speakers and head unit. Let's look at how the Lada Granta radio is installed.

Installation of 1 din radio in Grantu standard and norm

What is needed to install a radio in a VAZ 2190:

• The radio itself is also the head unit;
• flat screwdriver;
• Straight arms.

In the article we consider only the installation of the GI. how to install speakers here.

Abbreviations and symbols in the text:

• GU – head unit;
• MMS – multimedia system;
• DIN (din) – installation size for acoustics in a car.

Step-by-step instructions for installing the head unit

Required:

1. a narrow flat screwdriver or plastic spatula for installing acoustics;
2. 1-din radio with frame.

The seat in Grant is designed for 1 din. To work with large 2-din sizes, you will need to cut out the partition and install a decorative frame.

Step 1 . Using a flat-head screwdriver, remove the plastic plug for the radio. To do this, carefully pry it around the edges and pull it towards you.

The placeholder for the radio is installed from the factory.

Step 2 . On the back of the plug there is a mount for ISO connectors. There are two connectors: music power and wires for the speakers.

When connecting the pads, you can’t confuse them - they have fastenings of different shapes. 8 wires at the speaker terminal. The second power connector.

Step 3 . If necessary, connect an adapter for your radio to the ISO. Usually it comes included .

If an adapter is not needed , proceed to step 4.

If an adapter is needed for acoustics, it is included in the kit. Example in the picture.

Step 4 . We remove the glove compartment. Holding the glove compartment clamps in the upper position, forcefully lower the glove compartment down.

Overcoming resistance, we pull the lid towards ourselves - the glove compartment is removed.

Removing the glove box on a Grant is easy when you know where its latches are located.

Step 5 . We climb under the panel in the area of ​​the front right passenger's feet with a flashlight. Behind the felt on top we find a thick black wire - at its end there is a plug for the factory antenna.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fiNLc65LEYs

We extend the plug to the installation location of the radio.

Here we are looking for the antenna wire.

Step 6 . We install metal slides for the radio. a screwdriver to bend the fastenings of the slide at the top and bottom to ensure secure fastening.

These fasteners secure the slide into the panel opening.

Step 7 . We connect the power connectors, speakers, antennas to the radio. We insert it into the slide all the way. We attach a decorative plastic frame.

If you plan to install an amplifier, you must first stretch the wires under the panel and bring them to the installation site of the power unit.

To get by without extending the wires , you will have to suffer:

1. We put our hand under the panel in the glove compartment area;
2. We put the radio in the slide and connect it to the plugs;
3. We blindly connect the power, the connector for the speakers, the wires for the amplifier, and the antenna.

Disadvantages of the method : we spend a lot of time, the process is dreary and inconvenient. We'll probably rip off your wrist.

Plus : there is no need to build up wires, which will then interfere with the installation of the PG, resting against the back wall.

If, after installing the acoustics, the alternator belt begins to whistle, the solution to the problem is here.

As you can see, immediately behind the GU in Grant there is a vertical partition, which greatly interferes with blind installation.

It happens that the acoustics hold weakly in the sled , although they sit firmly. Solving the problem:

1. Using the keys for dismantling (included with the control unit), remove the radio;
2. We take a small piece of vibroplast (resin-based foil) and glue it onto the slide from the inside, top or bottom - this way we will ensure that the tape recorder is completely pressed against the slide without unnecessary vibrations;
3. Once again, use a screwdriver to press down all the fastenings of the slide: some might have been under-tightened;
4. We put the acoustics back and check - all unnecessary vibrations during shaking should disappear.

Vibroplast helps not only with soundproofing a car.

How to remove the dashboard for sizing

Recently a guy asked how to remove the dashboard for sizing. I want to share my impressions about this process. Suddenly someone wants to do this too. So here it is. I removed the panel last summer. Also for sizing. I did everything alone. I’ll say this: you can remove/install it alone, but it’s very messy. It's easier with two people, but I don't think it's much easier. Don't believe the repair book, it's much more complicated than it says. Too much will have to be removed in addition to the panel itself: the central trim, air duct tubes, gearbox housing, handbrake housing, floor tunnel, passenger airbag (if equipped), A-pillar trims, tidy. There are a lot of different screws and self-tapping screws, during assembly it is easy to get confused as to which ones were screwed in where. If I'm not mistaken, there are 26 screws alone for securing the panel itself! There are two treacherous screws on the left and right right under the windshield, which you can’t unscrew with a regular screwdriver, you can’t get under them. While the panel is being removed, you are left without glass blowing, and in current weather conditions this is fraught with consequences, including an accident due to fogged windows. If you just park the car. In terms of time: removal took 3 hours, installation took 4 kopecks. The steering wheel gets in the way. The left air duct pipe did not want to fall into place, it rested either on the body or on the windshield, it took me a whole hour just to do this. According to the results: the panel became a little more assembled, but after a WEEK it began to crunch again. In addition to this, the airflow on the windshield has become uneven - it blows weaker in the middle than at the edges. I’m generally silent about the numerous scratches on the dashboard and front door trims. You can remove them with an autogen lighter, but still the appearance is no longer marketable. Summarizing all of the above, from the bottom of my heart I HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND doing this. You'll only make it worse. But this is purely my opinion, and then see for yourself. Maybe if you have experience in this matter, it will be easier for you. But I wouldn’t do this again now for any money, there are too many body movements and nuances

Soundproofing panel/dashboard Grants

There can be many sources of rattling and squeaking in dashboards, let's look at the most common ones:

The radio/radio plug is rattling. Solution: use anti-creak or sealant.

The air duct rattles at the point of contact of the windshield blower nozzle. Solution: use silicone sealant or anti-squeak.

The airbag plug creaks. Solution: when installing the plug, coat it with sealant, or use bitoplast (5mm or 10mm). The panel trim creaks. Solution: Remove the dashboard trim and glue the places where it touches (on the panel and on the trim itself) with bitoplast or anti-squeak.

The panel/dashboard creaks. Solution: The solution to the problem of panel rattling must be comprehensive.

1. It is recommended to weight the dashboard using vibration materials (for example, 1 sheet of STP Gold 250 RUB/sheet is enough). Heat the pieces with a hairdryer and glue the panel with a “vibra” using a hard roller. A heavier Granta panel will produce less extraneous sounds.
2. Wrap the torpedo wires with anti-squeak.
3. Treat all removable elements with anti-squeak (panel trim, airbag cover, glove compartment, etc.)
4. Tighten all possible panel mounting nuts.

Soundproofing the dashboard is a modification that should be done at the factory, but AvtoVAZ provides car owners with the opportunity to do this with their own hands.

Remember that the best sound insulation is when a set of works has been completed not only to isolate from external noise (noise from wheels, engine, wind, etc.), but also to eliminate creaks and crickets inside the car.

Do-it-yourself tuning of the Lada Granta interior with video and photos

Modern domestic cars are distinguished by maneuverability, endurance and excellent performance characteristics. However, where they definitely lose is in the configuration and convenience of the interior. The Lada Granta is no exception. Many sacrifice the aesthetic component, because compared to foreign cars, the VAZ differs favorably in price.

Others choose tuning, which can actually be done in some places even with your own hands, because in workshops such changes can cost significant sums. Internal and external design redesign is not so difficult if you know and take into account some of the nuances.

Basics of basic tuning

The Lada Granta has minor mechanical and aesthetic defects, which will not be difficult to identify after the first run-in. These are some technical details, first of all, which the manufacturer promised to take into account in the following modifications. Among the most common problems that you can actually fix yourself without a trip to a service station are:

1. High standard suspension.
2. Inconvenient sunroof.
3. No spoiler.
4. “Faded” and uncomfortable front panel.
5. Poor quality steering wheel finish.
6. Unattractive upholstery and lack of armrests and headrests.

All these points can be redone by carrying out simple tuning yourself. The easiest way is to re-equip the interior first, because to deal with, for example, the suspension, you need some experience, while changing the trim material will not take much effort, money and does not require special experience.

Changes in the salon: where to start

Practice shows that the Lada Granta has one weak point, which is noted by almost all motorists. This is the front instrument panel. The backlight intensity here is extremely low, due to which the driver in the dark has to strain his eyes to see the speed scale. There is a simple solution - add LED strips under the panel, which solves the problem to some extent. This kind of work is not difficult; you can do it yourself. You need to follow these steps:

• remove the panel fastening;
• remove glass and instruments;
• install LED elements;
• connect power;
• do everything listed in reverse order.

Let's look at this tuning in more detail. In order to remove the panel and gain access to the devices, you need to unbend all the fixing latches. After this, you can remove the back cover. The Lada Granta has a small plus in this regard - small recesses with which you can easily pull out this part. We access the display. If you bought a used car, then an unpleasant surprise may be the fact that the display is soldered to the walls. In this case, it is advisable to use a desoldering pump.

After the display is removed and all the antennae move freely in the landing zone, you need to unscrew the factory LEDs and put new ones in their place. Then we connect the network and check the operation of the light bulbs. If they burn normally, then you can reassemble. As a result, you will see how the appearance of the cabin has changed just thanks to a slightly improved dashboard.

Tuning for convenience on the go

Not only the beauty of the interior plays a role for drivers, but also comfortable driving conditions. So, you can reupholster the steering wheel with new material, adding softness to it, put new covers on the seats, and install armrests and headrests. All these actions are very easy to do with your own hands.

To make such a change to the interior of a Lada Granta car, like most others, you must first remove the seat backs. To do this, remove the upholstery and unfasten the zipper. Use a screwdriver to unscrew all the plastic fasteners. The headrests are attached with brackets, marking the future locations. Next, in the selected area on the seat pipe, we drill holes and fasten the brackets, and tighten the fasteners with a wrench. At the end, carefully return the upholstery to its place.

That's all. As you can see, it is not at all difficult to carry out minimal tuning in Lada with your own hands.

Alternative torpedo

The alternative dashboard is softer than the standard “tens” dashboard, but the main advantage is the absence of unpleasant grinding and squeaking. Motorists decide to get rid of the standard one precisely because of the squeaking. For the VAZ 2110 car there are several types of panels that differ in design.

The panel is sold as a set:

• The panel itself, which is an alternative to standard plastic.
• Buttons, brackets and inserts for blowers and instrument panels.
• A set of wires and a block for a double switch.
• Buttons for low beam, heating, dimensions and fog lights.
• Plugs for buttons are installed in places where keys are not needed.

Let's reveal a little secret before installation

First you need to purchase everything to assemble your new device. You can buy everything you need in auto stores or at the car market. Another option is an internet site, here it is even possible to acquire equipment in improved versions, with new versions.

You can install the speakers either at the back or on the side of the front doors. To do this, just cut two holes for them.

Head unit for grants

Firmware

For some reason, many car enthusiasts prefer to use a standard Lada car radio with firmware. Although it does not affect the sound quality in any way, the fact remains not in favor of the original. Also, when using firmware of at least a Lux or 2 Din model, you can get additional functionality. In addition, this service makes it possible to create additional functions that the regular interface does not have.

Let's start the process

We will need an SD card using FAT formatting. You can use the same card when formatting in exFAT. Before the whole process, be sure to download the firmware. This can be done here. When everything has been downloaded, we next copy file documents to the root directory of the SD card. Before this, we save the received materials to a flash drive. Then we transfer the received data to the memory of our car radio. Overload in progress.

Firmware for radio

As soon as we see that the reboot status scale is in full, it means we can use the new expanded capabilities of our standard Lada Granta Lux radio, 2 din.

Now you know all the details of all the functions, installation and firmware of the standard radios of the Lada Granta Lux, 2 din and other models of the audio system of this car brand. If you think that you are not able to handle all the necessary settings yourself, then you can look on the Internet for craftsmen who specialize in creating your personal menu for the entire system. There is evidence that they have learned to implement an interface where they can remove, for example, a radio receiver from the system itself and use directly necessary functions.

Remember. Also, the firmware sometimes requires screen calibration before operating the analog menu.

That's all we could tell you. If you follow the instructions received, the whole thing will be done faster, and you will definitely enjoy the updated head unit Lada Granta 2 din, Lux.

In the Lada Grant, the standard audio preparation of the car has already been completed from the factory, the wires for power supply and speakers have been laid, so installing and connecting the radio does not present any particular difficulties. The installation space in the front panel console of the car is designed for installing a 1-DIN car radio. No tools are required for installation; all dimensions are already made in accordance with generally accepted housing standards. When installing a 2-DIN car radio, you will need to cut out the partition and purchase a frame for the console to fit the size of your audio system.

How to remove the center console of a Lada Granta

Greetings my subscribers and guests of my logbook

This morning I woke up, and my hands were itching since yesterday, I endured it until the morning. I again took some Madeleine and scissors and went to the car. I removed the center console and began to inspect the whole thing, where the joints of all the parts that are installed on it are. I carefully took everything apart, taped the material, assembled it and moved everything normally. So we move on. Some parts, such as air ducts, had to be removed and installed several times to achieve a result that suited me.

After gluing everything became much tighter, I pulled the console with both hands and everything was quiet EXCELLENT what I wanted). I didn’t stop there and glued the remaining material onto the fuse cover, the side panel plugs, the frame on the instrument panel, and glued a small square to the place where the alarm key fob knocks on the steering column casing. I also glued it to the inner velvets, they were still removed when I rolled the glass with film. The glass sits much tighter and doesn’t rattle on bumps, that’s all.

Soundproofing panel/dashboard Grants

Lada Granta SPACE › Logbook › Shvi instrument panel

the penultimate stage of complete noise and vibration insulation of my grant, a panel with a motor shield. in general, all the supporting units located on the panel were removed: the side plastic plugs (located at the ends), the central cover of the panel, under it the heater control unit was unscrewed, which is attached to two screws, the plastic steering wheel covers were also removed, the steering wheel itself (when removed, it is better mark the threads and the wheel itself in order to put it back straight) with an airbag (I had to ask an assistant because from the bottom from the sides to opposite each other you need to find two holes, insert objects such as nails or a screwdriver into them, press the clamps, while they are pressed, you need to pull off the airbag), these procedures must be carried out with the battery terminals removed, better than both and so that at least 1 minute has passed, otherwise the airbag will work,

there is also a plastic instrument panel cover behind the steering wheel (with three bolts and from the right corner it is held on a clip with an iron holder, you just need to pull it harder and it will come out),

also, under the trim, the instrument panel itself was removed (it is secured with four bolts, you also need to pull out the wiring harness from it that holds a valve-type mechanism that needs to be moved down), the headlight hydraulic corrector was removed (more precisely, its fastening, the twister is simply pulled off stupidly and under it the head screws on a nut like 19), the headlight control unit (unscrews with one self-tapping screw), the glove compartment was also removed (it is attached to the top with two bolts, then two plates from the top are pressed and it falls down, then you just need to pull it off from the lower mounts) there is still a space above the glove compartment I also twisted the plastic plate (attached with 4 screws) and removed the plug from the top of the panel on the passenger side (from the second sunroof type airbag) (forged with a knife and tore it out), the floor tunnel was also removed, all the removed elements were vibrated,

I sealed the outside of the glove compartment with vibrato, also put a layer of splen on the inside, and tightened the top of the inside with madeline so that nothing would rattle in the glove compartment.

In general, I’m quietly disassembling the panel, at one time I check with the book so as not to miss anything, I unscrewed all the screws on the outer panels, about 18 of them, and I’m thinking about what to do next, I look in the book and it says, carefully lift the panel and use a long screwdriver, unscrew the screws securing the air ducts of the front windows, and that’s it..., the book doesn’t explain in more detail how to unscrew these fucking screws so carefully, in general, I’m trying to lift this panel, but it didn’t work out that way, it doesn’t lift much, and it’s almost impossible to put your hand to these screws I couldn’t get it through, I went to the computer, sat down, started looking on the net for how to twist them, again a bummer, on the net the same book was paraphrased from different sources, in general I walked around this panel for a long time, this way and that and still with great difficulty and with a small tear I was able to stick my rather small hands in, on the right side from the bottom, from the side of the glove box, I crawled up to this screw, unscrewed it with a little difficulty, but on the left side I suffered and more than once remembered the designers who made such fastenings in the inside of the panel, and where finally It’s not really possible to crawl up, why the hell do I do that, I thought, and still, with difficulty, I stuck both hands through, stuck my left hand from the left side from the end where the side panel plug goes, lifting the panel to the top as much as I could, almost with a tear, stuck my right hand under the bend the air duct between it and the stiffening pipe where the speedometer wire block sticks out, in general I stuck my hands in almost with a bang, and in the end, with a little pain, I unscrewed this self-tapping screw. after which, with a little effort, the panel was removed, I did not remove the central air duct, and without removing it, the panel already began to come out and came out. I glued the panel itself with a thin 2mm vibrator, in the panel itself I noticed a feature that on the panel itself inside there is a tunnel for the air duct to the windshield, and it is made as a separate part and I assume that this design can rattle, so the joints between this trim and the panel itself I also glued the panel with vibration

How to remove the dashboard for sizing

Recently a guy asked how to remove the dashboard for sizing. I want to share my impressions about this process. Suddenly someone wants to do this too. So here it is. I removed the panel last summer. Also for sizing. I did everything alone. I’ll say this: you can remove/install it alone, but it’s very messy. It's easier with two people, but I don't think it's much easier. Don't believe the repair book, it's much more complicated than it says. Too much will have to be removed in addition to the panel itself: the central trim, air duct tubes, gearbox housing, handbrake housing, floor tunnel, passenger airbag (if equipped), A-pillar trims, tidy. There are a lot of different screws and self-tapping screws, during assembly it is easy to get confused as to which ones were screwed in where. If I'm not mistaken, there are 26 screws alone for securing the panel itself! There are two treacherous screws on the left and right right under the windshield, which you can’t unscrew with a regular screwdriver, you can’t get under them. While the panel is being removed, you are left without glass blowing, and in current weather conditions this is fraught with consequences, including an accident due to fogged windows. If you just park the car. In terms of time: removal took 3 hours, installation took 4 kopecks. The steering wheel gets in the way. The left air duct pipe did not want to fall into place, it rested either on the body or on the windshield, it took me a whole hour just to do this. According to the results: the panel became a little more assembled, but after a WEEK it began to crunch again. In addition to this, the airflow on the windshield has become uneven - it blows weaker in the middle than at the edges. I’m generally silent about the numerous scratches on the dashboard and front door trims. You can remove them with an autogen lighter, but still the appearance is no longer marketable. Summarizing all of the above, from the bottom of my heart I HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND doing this. You'll only make it worse. But this is purely my opinion, and then see for yourself. Maybe if you have experience in this matter, it will be easier for you. But I wouldn’t do this again now for any money, there are too many body movements and nuances

Cold welding – hot idea

So, let's begin. The work is very delicate and painstaking, one might even say a piece of jewelry, so we must be patient. The most ideal option for making such an invention as a frame for a 2 din Grant radio, in my opinion, is to mold an adapter frame from cold welding, and besides, I was not the only one who came up with this idea. The transition frame needs to be “sculpted” on the center console with the radio. To do this, you should go to a hardware store and buy there:

1. Cold welding 2. Masking tape 3. Nylon thread

You're probably wondering, why use masking tape? And this is in order to paste over the radio according to the form of welding, so as not to glue it to the panel forever. Be sure that everything will work out, and soon you will have a frame for Grant’s 2 din radio.

In order for the mold to be easily removed later, we apply cling film on top of the tape, again following the shape of the weld. Also, to give our frame greater strength, it is recommended to run thin copper wire around its perimeter.

To make it easier to remove the frame, you should put a thread under it. In my case, it turned out according to the well-known saying “The first pancake is lumpy”, I stuck a cold weld right on top of the masking tape and did not put a thread under it (although this would hardly have changed anything), the result is a broken newly made 2 din grant frame. Learn from other people's mistakes.

Don’t be surprised if it takes some effort to remove the cling film from welding; act carefully and you won’t break anything.

After we have removed the “freshly molded” frame, we should immediately take care of the fastenings, because somehow it must hold on.

To do this, we make two thin fasteners, similar to those that are placed on the caps, having previously measured the diameter between the tunnel for the radio and the upper edge of the panel. If you blinded too much, don’t worry, we have sandpaper and desire.

So, the transition frame for the Lada Grant is ready. Now we get to work on grinding off all the excess and giving our frame for the 2 din radio a smooth and attractive look. To do this, we use sandpaper No. 40, and if you have gone through with force and ground off the excess, we use the same cold welding to build up. I would like to immediately warn you that the work of adjusting the frame requires the greatest endurance.

After eliminating all the irregularities, we begin the process of preparing the frame for applying putty and primer. If you have taken on this painstaking work, then you are probably patient and a person striving for ideals, and you probably love your Lada Granta very much. After all, many simply would not take up this matter. In the meantime, let’s continue the so-called journey towards the ideal in the “2 din Grant Frame” case.

How to remove the door trim on a Lada Granta with your own hands (video instructions)

Starter fuse for Lada Granta

Replace the lock, repair the window regulator or speakers - in order to do all this you will need to remove the card from the door. Therefore, now we will describe in detail how to remove the trim from the door of a Lada Granta so that your liftback does not suffer from careless and ill-considered actions.

The procedures for removing trim from the front and rear doors of a car are slightly different, but we will tell you in detail about each process so that you can cope with this not very difficult job yourself.

Additional sound insulation may also be a reason to remove the trim from some interior elements, but this is a separate story that requires a special approach.

Step-by-step removal of the front door card

To replace the casing, you will need a set of screwdrivers, but it is worth stocking up on spare clips, which are necessary for fastening the casing.

First, for safety reasons, you need to remove the negative terminal from the battery.

1. Unscrew the door lock button until you can remove it completely.
2. Use a screwdriver to pry up the screw cap that secures the trim to the door.
3. Using a cross-shaped tool, unscrew the screw itself.
4. Do the same procedure with the screw located in the armrest recess, as well as its two screws at the bottom of the card.
5. Pry the top of the handle with a flat tool to remove it.
6. Unscrew the two screws inside the handle that are found under the top trim.
7. Once the trim is no longer attached to the door, you need to start removing it from the lower front edge. To gain access to it, just use a flat tool to pry the edge that fits tightly to the metal of the door.
8. As you remove the upholstery material, you must disconnect the pins holding it. At such moments you should be extremely careful not to damage them. In total, there are 8-9 pistons (clips) on the Lada Granta door, and they are located along the perimeter of the upholstery fabric, but closer to the edges.
9. From the corner, move in both directions at once while removing the card.
10. Remove the lock lock rod from the hole.
11. Disconnect the exposed block with the power window wires by squeezing the locking element. In cars that do not have power windows, remove the lever seal from the handle hinge.
12. Only then can you completely remove the door trim.

Step-by-step removal of the rear door card

The tools are the same, since the very essence of the process is not much different from the previous one.

1. Using a flat tool, press out the window handle retaining element.
2. Move the lock to the side and remove the handle completely.
3. Remove the second part of the handle and the socket.
4. Unscrew the locking element of the lock.
5. Use a flat tool or a metal spatula to pry off the top of the handle. Take it off.
6. Remove the two screws inside the handle.
7. Use a long, flat tool to pry up the trim underneath, pushing it between the metal of the door and the card.
8. During the removal process, snap off the pistons, trying as much as possible not to damage them. There are more clips on the back door than on the front - 10 pieces.
9. That's all, now you can completely remove the trim from the rear door of the Lada Granta.

Installing the casing is slightly different from dismantling it, not only in the sequence of actions, but also in why exactly the old one was removed. Therefore, this issue will be considered separately.

Soundproofing panel/dashboard Grants

There can be many sources of rattling and squeaking in dashboards, let's look at the most common ones:

The radio/radio plug is rattling. Solution: use anti-creak or sealant.

The air duct rattles at the point of contact of the windshield blower nozzle. Solution: use silicone sealant or anti-squeak. The airbag plug creaks. Solution: when installing the plug, coat it with sealant, or use bitoplast (5mm or 10mm).

The panel trim creaks. Solution: Remove the dashboard trim and glue the places where it touches (on the panel and on the trim itself) with bitoplast or anti-squeak.

The panel/dashboard creaks. Solution: The solution to the problem of panel rattling must be comprehensive.

1. It is recommended to weight the dashboard using vibration materials (for example, 1 sheet of STP Gold 250 RUB/sheet is enough). Heat the pieces with a hairdryer and glue the panel with a “vibra” using a hard roller. A heavier Granta panel will produce less extraneous sounds.
2. Wrap the torpedo wires with anti-squeak.
3. Treat all removable elements with anti-squeak (panel trim, airbag cover, glove compartment, etc.)
4. Tighten all possible panel mounting nuts.

Soundproofing the dashboard is a modification that should be done at the factory, but AvtoVAZ provides car owners with the opportunity to do this with their own hands.

Remember that the best sound insulation is when a set of works has been carried out aimed not only at insulating from external noise (noise from wheels, engine, wind, etc.), but also eliminating creaks and crickets inside the car.

Choosing the right radio size

We carry out installation either independently or by contacting specialists at the service center. In the second case, the service is paid.

By default, all VAZ and Lada models are equipped with a 1-DIN radio. The opening dimensions correspond to: 180 x 50 mm. This is an old standardization that has been in force since the times of the USSR. Modern audio modules can be purchased complete with a pre-installed LCD display. The size of the opening must comply with the standard: 180 x 100 mm, that is, doubled in height. Size marking: 2-DIN.

To install the radio in the Granta liftback, cut out the top pocket, remove the plastic, and install the assembled module. For a beginner, the process will seem somewhat complicated, so strictly follow the instructions.

Installing the Euro trim without removing the dashboard

In this option, you need to have a drill and screws on hand.

Rely on the lining mounting diagram and start in order:

1. Remove the dashboard.
2. Open the glove compartment and unscrew the three screws from the inside (positions 1,2,3 in the diagram). Trying to unscrew the screw (pos. 9) from the inside near the windshield is difficult, but doable.
3. Remove the 4 keys (next to the control module) and unscrew the screws from the inside (pos. 4.5)
4. Unscrew or loosen the fastening by adjusting the backlight (pos.
5. Open the fuse module and unscrew 2 screws from the inside (pos. 6 and 7)
6. Now the panel overlay is held in place only by screws, positions 10 and 11. They cannot be unscrewed, so we break them out or lift the overlay by the right edge and cut them off with a file. (Note: the Euro trim will cover the entire top of the panel up to the windshield, so you don’t have to worry about the appearance when you cut or break the screws)
7. Remove the old dashboard trim.

How to remove the tidy on a Grant sedan and liftback

Removing the torpedo with your own hands on cars of the specified versions before and after 2013 is simple. To do this, you only need a Phillips and flathead screwdriver. The sequence of actions looks like this.

• Initially, you should turn off the power to the car and place it in a stable position.
• Remove the cover of the interior fuse box.

• Next, you will need to find the mounting screw and unscrew it. The fasteners for the instrument panel trim are also unscrewed.
• Now the decorative trim can be removed and the mounting of the tidy itself can be exposed.

• There are two screws at the bottom of the console that hold it in place. The screws need to be unscrewed and the tidy lifted.
• Next, you should reach under the panel and remove the wire terminal block from its back.

Removing the front panel of Granta Lux

1. Turn off the power to the car - all manipulations with the device are performed only after disconnecting the battery.
2. Using a plastic spatula or screwdriver, remove the radio/radio plug.
3. Pull the heater and air duct controls towards you. The procedure must be performed with extreme caution. There is a risk of damaging the regulator.
4. Next you will need to remove the facing plastic of the beard by prying it off with a screwdriver. The design contains plastic latches that are easy to break. During reassembly, new ones are put in their place.
5. At the end, you will need to lift the tidy and disconnect the contact groups of wires from the reverse side.

How to install and connect

To install a radio on Grant, you need:

1. Remove the decorative plug in the front panel by lifting it with a mounting spatula. Wires with ISO standard connectors are located in special routings on the back.
2. Place a 1 Din mounting shaft in the rectangular hole and press firmly.
3. Use a screwdriver or other object to bend the metal corners that will keep the part from falling out.
4. Open the glove box lid to find the antenna cable, which is located under the floor sound insulation near the front passenger's feet.
5. Connect the power adapter (depending on the type of head unit). Route the cables through the installation shaft.
6. Install the speakers in their original places. The doors of the basic configuration do not have cables for connection; there is only a connection plug located near the clutch pedal. In this case, the cables should be installed independently, passing them through the corrugated protective channels located between the stand and the door.
7. The laid wires are wrapped in foam rubber, which is secured with tape or insulating tape. This manipulation allows you to avoid extraneous sounds caused by the contact of cable insulation on the metal door panels.
8. When using speakers with a diameter of more than 13″, it is necessary to make wooden or plywood podiums that will allow the equipment to be installed in a standard hole.
9. Connect the plugs to the head unit, which is then inserted all the way into the mounting shaft.
10. Check the operation of the radio receiver and player in different modes.
11. Install the decorative frame in its original place.

To install a double-din head unit you need:

1. Using a mounting spatula, remove the air conditioner control knob.
2. Pry up and remove the plastic cover of the central part of the instrument panel. When dismantling, it is necessary to disconnect the wiring plugs to the control buttons for additional equipment.
3. Using a hacksaw and a construction knife, cut out the central jumper in the instrument panel. At the same time, the transition channel for the central interior ventilation deflectors is shortened by 4-5 mm.
4. Install the radio in the shaft using modified mounting brackets. The device is attached to standard points located in the instrument panel.
5. Mount the modified decorative frame onto which the deflectors have previously been rearranged.

If the head unit supports a low-frequency speaker, then a separate wiring is laid to it, which runs under the trim on the thresholds. When using an active subwoofer with a bass reflex, it is necessary to route the power cables, equipped with a separate fuse, into the luggage compartment.

Lada Granta how to remove the front and rear door trim

Any car owner can dismantle the door panel trim on the Lada Granta model on his own, since this work does not involve any difficulties.

Removing the casing takes little time. The procedure itself can be carried out through several simple steps. For dismantling, you should only arm yourself with screwdrivers: flat-profile and figured. In this article we will describe how to remove the trim on a Grant from the front door and, accordingly, from the rear door.

How to dismantle the casing in Grant yourself?

How to remove the casing correctly and with your own hands? The first step is to disconnect the negative terminal from the power battery of the Lada Grant. This action is not necessary if the stern doors are not equipped with power windows. When dismantling the trim from the front door panel, disconnecting the terminal is a mandatory measure!

To securely fit the casing in its place, you will need to acquire new clips. It is possible that these fasteners may break during the removal procedure.

Next, on the decorative door panel of the Lada Granta, using a flat-profile screwdriver, pry up the plug and remove it. We act carefully to avoid breaking off its fasteners. Use a Phillips screwdriver to unscrew the fixing screw. We perform a similar procedure with a bolt located in a plastic socket.

After this, we switch to the plugs placed in the handle itself

If you carefully remove them, you will have access to two screws that also need to be unscrewed. We recommend placing all fastening elements in suitable containers.

This will allow you to quickly and accurately assemble the unit to its previous state.

The only action left is to unscrew the remaining pair of trim fixing bolts, which are located at the bottom of the door card. To remove the locking button, you will need to perform a simple manipulation - turn it to the left and slowly pull it up. If the car is equipped with a manual drive of the mirror mechanism, then use a screwdriver to pry up the sealing gasket of the mirror hinge lever and remove it.

Based on the photo, it is recommended to first familiarize yourself with the locations of the clips in the Lada Granta. This will reduce the risk of damage and save time on work.

How to remove manual or power windows?

Removing manual mechanisms

In this case, armed with a flat screwdriver, we effortlessly press the mechanism handle lock away from the socket. Next, we move the latch to a position where its protrusion is freed from engagement with the socket. Now remove the socket with the handle.

If the window lift is electric?

The process of removing a panel with an electric mechanism on a LADA Granta is similar to that discussed earlier: the panel is pryed off and dismantled. To eliminate interference caused by the removed panel, it should be placed inside the door card by feeding it through the hole that is the panel seat.

The final stage of dismantling the casing

How to remove the trim carefully? Using a plastic spatula, pry up the casing and carefully remove it from its engagement with the latches. Next we see the switching harnesses with cables

They are necessary to connect door mechanisms:

• window regulator;
• mirror drive;
• loudspeaker, etc. (depending on the configuration version).

We disconnect their connectors.

Upon completion of work, you should make sure that there are no broken clips. If any are present, then we replace them with new analogues. We assemble the casing on the LADA Granta in the reverse order. Now you have become familiar with how to remove the trim on a domestic car on the front door and, accordingly, the rear door.
