Abstract
A vehicle door assembly with a removable outside panel, including a flange on the outside panel bottom edge. The flange is folded towards the inside panel, and forms a V-shaped groove opening which opens in an upward direction. The inside panel bottom edge engages within this groove in a releasable manner, distributing the weight of the outside panel across the length of the bottom edge, eliminating the need for a cover member to attach the outside panel to.
