Instructions for Removing the Door Panel

Model: Fiat 500 312 - Years 2007-2024
Part: Door trim panel

Removing the door panel on this car model is extremely simple: start by locating the caps on the outer edge of the panel, above the lock, to remove them and access the first two screws securing the panel. Then, unclip the trim at the base of the internal opening lever, beneath which there are two more screws. Finally, remove the cover inside the handle at the centre of the panel and unscrew the last two screws. At this point, pry along the edge of the panel to release the clips and disconnect the lock cable to complete the panel removal.
