Removing the Door Panel on Citroen C5

Model: Citroen C5 MK 2, RD, X7 - Years 2008-2017
Part: Door trim panel

Remove the door panel on a Citroen C5 if it is damaged or if you need to repair the door from the inside. Remove all the plastic cover pieces above the panel (handle cover). Unscrew the screws located above the door panel using a screwdriver. Detach the retaining clips. Go around the entire perimeter of the panel with a plastic lever, then use your hands to detach the panel and unclip it from the door (disconnect the wiring and the opening cable). Fit the new door cover panel. Screw in the screws and refit the plastic covers.
