Start by removing the plastic cover near the door handle using a thin but sturdy tool. Repeat this step for the plastic cover of the handle itself and for the cover behind the opening handle.

Once these covers are removed, you will expose some screws. Proceed to unscrew and remove these screws using a Torx T20. After this step, before you can remove the panel, you need to take off the window winder.

To do this, pull it away from the panel by two millimetres, then remove the clip that secures it, allowing you to take off the winder. Once done, use the thin but sturdy tool to pry along the entire perimeter of the panel to release the clips that hold it in place.

When all the clips are released, you can remove the panel, successfully completing the disassembly.
