Today we will explain how to remove the door panel of a 2015 Ford Focus car in less than 10 minutes.

Remove the tail light and using the plastic removal tool, release the handle and lift the window switch panel. Using a 25mm Torx key, remove the screws behind the handle. Remove the door handle by lifting the cover and unscrewing the screw. Remove the lower and side screws and then release the panel. Disconnect the connector to completely remove the panel.
