Removing the Door Panel for Replacement

Model: Kia Sorento MK 2 - Years 2009-2014
Part: Door trim panel

The tools needed for this operation are: a flathead screwdriver, a Phillips screwdriver, a Torx spanner, and a spatula. Remove the handle cover and unscrew the retaining screws located beneath the plastic cover. Also unscrew all the screws on the panel located on the sides, and carefully remove the panel along the edges using the spatula, pulling it upwards. Carefully disconnect the electrical connectors, taking care not to pull them out. Refit the new panel starting with the connection of the electrical cables. Position the panel upwards and then push it down until it clicks into place. Reinsert the screws.
