Replacing a Car Door Panel

Model: Mercedes Classe E W211 - Years 2002-2009
Part: Door trim panel

There are many tasks you can perform on your car without needing a professional's help. After opening the door and completely emptying the storage compartment, locate the three screws on the panel and remove them with a magnetic screwdriver. Next, detach the aluminum trim of the door, but be very careful, as this is an extremely delicate part. Remove the two screws and move to the bottom of the panel, where you'll perform the last step before removing the structure. Underneath, you will notice a support screw located roughly in the center of the panel; remove it and proceed to detach the entire assembly.
