To remove the door panel on the Mini R50, you need to detach the cover that wraps around the speaker and the internal handle of the door; you will also need to remove the circular cover located on the right side of the panel. Under these covers, there will be four screws that need to be loosened: this will allow you to detach the panel from the door by disconnecting the connectors inside.

Once the old panel has been removed, you can insert a new one, reconnecting the connectors and securing it with the screws.
