First, remove the horizontal trim secured in the panel using a suitable tool. Once removed, locate the 4 screws and unscrew them.

Now proceed to remove the panel, again using a suitable tool to pry at the edges. Start by disengaging the bottom part, then the side and top, sliding it upward.

Once removed, disconnect the cable that connects it to the lock, which is simply clipped in. Disconnect the electrical wires connecting the speaker, the mirror adjustment knob, and the interior light. Disconnecting these wires is not difficult; just understand the clipping mechanism (see video).

Done! The panel is removed! The vehicle is a BMW 3 Series.
