How to Remove the Rear Door Panel from a Land Rover Freelander

Model: Land Rover Freelander Freelander 1 - Years 1997-2006
Part: Door trim panel

Before you can start, open the rear door of your Land Rover Freelander. Begin by prying out and removing the insert of the inner handle using a thin but sturdy tool. Next, unscrew and remove the screws that secure the rear door panel to the door itself. This will free the door panel. Proceed to pry it out and remove it from its housing, then disconnect the electrical connector and the handle cable. Once you have disconnected the electrical connector and the lock cable, you can finally remove the rear door panel from your Land Rover Freelander, completing the disassembly.
