How to Remove the Driver's Side Front Door Panel on the Renault Clio 3

Model: Renault Clio MK 3, Clio 3, Clio III - Years 2005-2013
Part: Door trim panel

To remove the front door panel on the Renault Clio III, you will need a Torx screwdriver, a plastic tool, and a flat blade screwdriver. Remove the screws in the internal handle area, behind the plastic cover, one in the armrest (under the rubber cover), and one in the lower corner of the panel. Remove the window switch panel by prying it up with the plastic spatula along the entire edge, then disconnect the electrical connector. Release the retaining clips by prying between the panel and the metal along the perimeter, working from the bottom up. Disconnect the electrical connectors for the speaker, puddle lights, and courtesy light. Disconnect the internal handle cable: Unhook the metal pull from the lock mechanism (be careful not to break the plastic pin). Lift the panel: The panel unclips upwards after freeing the clips and cables.
