Open the affected front door (the video shows the passenger side door) and unscrew the screws located under the panel as shown in the video. Now, using a plastic wedge, pry in the gap of the window switch panel to release it from its housing, then disconnect its connector.

Still using the wedge or a plastic lever, pry and remove the cover of the central handle and the area around the opening handle, unscrewing the screws revealed in this way. Done! At this point, simply pull the door panel off by hand and disconnect the cables.
