Removing the Door on BMW 5 Series

Model: BMW Serie 5 F11, F10 - Years 2010-2017
Part: Door trim panel

Remove the door cover panel on a BMW 5 Series if it is broken. Start by removing the plastic trim above the panel to access the screws. Use a screwdriver to remove the screws located in the holes where you removed the covers. Remove all screws on the door panel and take off the plastic under the door opening lever. Pull the panel away from the door and disconnect the wiring harness and the opening cable. Perform the desired maintenance inside the door. Then reconnect the electrical connectors and install the new door cover panel along with the screws and plastic parts.
