Using a small flathead screwdriver, remove the small cover behind the opening handle and unscrew the screw underneath. At this point, unscrew all the screws located on the side and underneath the panel.

Use a plastic wedge to remove the cover of the central handle and, again, unscrew the screws underneath. The next step is to remove the upper plastic trim next to the window, which houses the switch for adjusting the mirror (disconnect its connector).

Now you can pull the panel away from the door and disconnect the cables.
