How to Remove the Door Panel from a Mini?

Model: Mini Mini R53, R52, R50 - Years 2001-2007
Part: Door trim panel

To remove the door panel on a Mini, detach the cover surrounding the speaker and the internal door handle; you will also need to remove the circular panel located on the right side of the panel. Under these covers, there will be four screws that must be loosened: this will allow you to detach the panel from the door while disconnecting the connectors located beneath it. Once the old panel is removed, you can insert a new one, connecting the connectors and securing it properly.
