Model: Mini Mini R56, R55, R57 - Years 2007-2014
Part: Door panel
Operation: Removal of the door panel in all its parts

Don't know how to remove a car door panel? Let's see how to do it in this video. We pull the plastic rivet as in the video, pull the round frame of the door compartment and with a suitable spatula we go to exert a careful pressure on the sides of the door trim. Remove the relative window lifter buttons from the housing and also disconnect the motor terminals. We unscrew all the screws of the door panel and immediately after we extract the glass gently from the top, making it slide upwards. Remove the flat rubber gaskets from the door and unhook the door open lever, remove the entire panel. We disassemble the lock from the screws with all the attached wires. Now let's get ready to reinstall all the previously disassembled components going backwards. Reassembling lock with door handle, window lifter motor, door protection panel, glass and various panels. We tighten all the respective tightening screws, not forgetting to connect all the electrical terminals.
