How to remove the front door panel on the Skoda Fabia?

Model: Skoda Fabia Mark2, 5J - Years 2007-2014
Part: Door trim panel

In this tutorial, we can see how to dismantle the front door panel of the Skoda Fabia, an operation that is extremely simple and quick. First of all, we open the door we will be working on, then we unclip the handle cover using preferably a plastic spatula. Next, we unscrew the two screws that have just been freed with a T30 Torx key, unscrew the remaining lower screws with a T15 key, and by leveraging along the perimeter, we separate the panel from the door. At this point, we just need to disconnect both the lock cable and the window regulator connector.
