Video tutorial

We can see in this video how to disassemble the inner panel of the door of a Ford Focus MK3: we start by removing the chrome trim of the door handle; this will allow us to remove the window switch panel. Disconnect the electrical connectors, unscrew the holding screws, then remove the cap covering the screw holding the inner door handle, and unscrew it. Now, starting from the bottom, we begin to release the clips holding the plastic panel to the bodywork.

When we reach the top, we will need to remove another screw located in the outer thickness of the door, and then remove the electrical connector of the external mirror control. Now we can remove the panel, disconnecting the last electrical connector.
