Here are the steps for removing and replacing the front door panel of the BMW X1. First, open the front door and start by removing the plastic cover of the handle by prying it off from the sides. Then, unscrew the fastening screws located underneath and on the sides of the door panel, as shown in the video.

At this point, disconnect the electrical connector for the window switch and the handle cable. This will allow access to the inside of the door, and you can apply the reverse procedure for reassembly!
