Removing the Door Panel on the Land Rover Freelander 2

Model: Land Rover Freelander Freelander 2 - Years 2006-2016
Part: Door trim panel

Remove the cover of the central handle by levering in the gaps with a plastic wedge, then unscrew the two bolts underneath. Similarly, remove the plastic cover near the opening handle and unscrew the now exposed bolt. Unscrew all other bolts securing the panel, which are clearly shown in the video, then use the plastic wedge again to extract the panel from its seat. Disconnect the cables and you're done. Proceed in reverse when reassembling the panel. Removing the panel is useful if you need to replace the lock or the window regulator motor.
