Today we will see the necessary instructions in order to disassemble and replace the front door panel of the BMW X3. First, we open the front door of the car and start unscrewing all the fastening screws we find on the panel, as well as on the sides and under the plastic covers on the handles; then we pry on the sides of the panel to detach and remove it, disconnecting the handle cable and the electric connector of the window switch, as shown in the video.

At this point, we reinstall the inner lining of the door!
