How do you remove the door panel of the Audi A3?

Model: Audi A3 MK 1, 8L - Years 1996-2003
Part: Door trim panel

The removal of the Audi A3 panel is done by levering with an object so that the molding along the entire armrest, on which the window lift button is placed, can be detached. By disconnecting the underlying connectors, the molding can be completely removed and then it will be possible to loosen the additional fixing screws located on the top of the panel: they are located in correspondence with the rearview mirror and the safety lock. Once these two screws have been removed, it will be possible to completely detach the panel so that it can be replaced with a new spare part.

Then, lever the retaining tab to extract the bulb holder, disconnect the power connector, and remove the old bulb to replace it with the LED one; reconnect the power, check the correct operation of the bulb (if not, rotate it 180°), and reposition the bulb holder in its place.
