Removal of the Front Door Panel

Model: Mazda Cx 7 MK 1 - Years 2006-2012
Part: Door trim panel

Locate the screws that secure the panel. One is above the lever to open the car and the other is at the bottom of the handle. Remove the small plastic covers that conceal them and unscrew. At this point, disconnect the lock cable connected to the lever. Use your hands to unclip the clips that hold the panel on the sides and bottom. Remove the panel that protects the mechanisms of the side mirror. Lift the panel and pull it out (to remove it, disconnect the various cables attached to it).
The car on which the maintenance operation is performed, as seen in the images, is a Mazda CX-7.
