To remove the front door inner panel of the Ford Focus, start with the handle cover, which is clipped in and can be removed by prying from the bottom. Use an 8 mm spanner to undo the two internal screws.

Next, remove the cover of the exit handle and the window switch panel, both of which are clipped in. Be careful to disconnect the electrical connectors on the latter. Now push the panel out from the bottom, then from the outer side, and finally from the top. The panel was actually only secured by the two screws we removed from the handle, so it comes off easily.

Just be cautious of the electrical connectors.
