If the door panel is damaged, you can replace it with a bit of patience. Here's how to do it. Use a screwdriver to remove the plastic cover in the centre of the panel.

Unscrew the screws in all the plastic holes. Unscrew any remaining screws on the door panel and detach the retaining clips.

Finally, remove the panel by hand and disconnect it from the door (disconnect the power wiring and the opening cable). Perform any desired maintenance inside the door if you need to change any parts, or fit the new panel.
