Replacement of the Driver's Door Panel

Model: Ford Focus MK 1 - Years 1998-2004
Part: Handle

Use a plastic lever to remove the triangular cover located at the point where the mirror is adjusted, then disconnect the attached cables. Next, remove the cap behind the handle and take out the bolt behind it. Again, using the plastic lever, remove the cover of the armrest and take out the visible bolts. Now, remove all the bolts and clips around the edges of the door panel, and take off the cover around the handle, being careful to disconnect the attached cables. Now the hardest part is done, and you can pull off the door panel. To reassemble it, follow the steps in reverse.
