How to Remove the Door Panel on a Cadillac CTS?

Model: Cadillac Cts MK 1 - Years 2002-2007
Part: Door trim panel

To remove the door panel on a Cadillac CTS, pry at specific points on the panel, as it is secured to the door solely by internal clips without any screws. You will need to pry under the internal handle's housing to remove it by disconnecting its connector. Then, detach the button for the internal door lock and the panel below the armrest: this will allow you to completely detach the panel and insert a new one, securing it by inserting the appropriate components.
