If you are planning to install additional front speakers (other then the 4” dash units) these steps outline some basic steps of the door panel removal (with power windows):

Removal:

2 Remove enclosure on door lock  (only one screw)

3 Push off cover on the door handle

4 Loosen screw inside on hand grip and unhook this yellow rod from the chrome handle

5 If equipped with power seats:
- Remove all 3 buttons by carefully pulling away from the door
- Carefully pry out the most forward part of the power seat control plate and slide it out

- Remove two screws of the actual controller (one on each side) and slide housing of inside door actuation in forward direction while releasing from inside door panel and linkage on inside door handle.

6 Pull door lining in upward direction out of holders and remove.

Installation:

1 Engage door lining first with hook on door handle, inside (extended large hook). Then toward the top into sealing rail and enter with hook laterally and below at inside door paneling

2 There are 5 additional hooks, 2 on one side and 3 on the other side – make sure they line up with the opening on the door!

3 For further installation proceed vice versa
If you are replacing your side panels, you would have to reuse your existing door handles and side pockets (unless you buying those new as well), here are the steps to remove them:

Carefully slide out the pocket forward and away until the following clips are free:

To remove the door handle, unscrew this nut:
