How do you remove the inner door panel of the Smart 453?

Model: Smart Smart 453 - Years 2014-2022
Part: Door trim panel

The video uploaded here, in which we are explained how to disassemble the Smart 453, is useful for us to have a clear idea about the type of car we are discussing in the subject. We describe the operational intervention: We start by removing the internal trim corresponding to the external rearview mirror, installed by interlocking, then we remove the screws present in the internal handle and near the lock, finally moving on to unhook the clips positioned at the bottom of the same panel. To conclude, we grab the panel and pull with force, in order to detach it from the door.
