  • Cleaning: Your Kia Optimas interior door panels and parts are exposed to a lot of different types of debris and contaminants.

Plus, when you open your Kia Optimas doors, they are exposed to different types of precipitation. Get rid of all trash and use soap and water to clean the storage bin. Use a vinyl cleaner to remove body oils and water marks, and use a cotton swab to clean all the switches.
  • Test: With so many different components, it is important to occasionally check your Optimas interior door panels to make sure everything is working properly. Check the lock and window switches to make sure they all activate what they are supposed to, ensure the courtesy light in the door is burning brightly, and get down by the speaker to make sure the sound coming out of it is satisfactory.

Use plastic restorer and protectant for the plastic components, and vinyl protectant for the vinyl components. Additionally, applying some type of Scotch Guard protectant to any fabric/carpeted surfaces will keep your door panels looking new.
What types of door panels are available for an Optima?

Most of the time, if there is a problem with one of your Optimas interior door panels, it will be with a specific component rather than the entire panel. Luckily, there are Original Equipment Manufacturer, or OEM components, as well as aftermarket components available. Everything from door handles to window switches can be selected individually. Though if you do need the entire door panel, you can find those.

If you do opt for an entire door panel for your car or for certain specific components such as a door handle, keep in mind that you need to select the part that matches the door that is giving you trouble. For example, if you need to replace the door panel on the drivers door, a door panel for a passengers door will not fit. They look similar, but they are not interchangeable.
