Removing the Door Panel

Model: BMW Serie 5 E39 - Years 1995-2003
Part: Door trim panel

This video shows you how to remove the door panel. First, unscrew and remove the screw located behind the internal opening handle. Then, gently pry off the faux wood plastic using a screwdriver. Using the same technique, take your screwdriver and repeat the process on all the outer sides of the door where clips are securing it. Once the panel is removed, be careful of the wires that remain connected; disconnect the connectors holding the wires, and you're done.
