How to replace the door panel of a Smart Fortwo

Model: Smart Smart 450 - Years 1998-2007
Part: Door trim panel

Before we can start, we will have to go and open the door of our Smart ForTwo. So let's start by unscrewing and removing the Torx screws that secure the interior handle to the door panel, and then removing the handle itself. After that, we will have to unscrew and remove the screws that secure the side storage compartment attached to the door panel, and then remove the compartment itself. At this point, we will have to go to disengage the door panel, using a flat screwdriver and prying. When we have completed this step, we will be able to remove the panel, and we will have finished the disassembly. To mount the new panel, all we have to do is follow this procedure in reverse, and the replacement will be completed.
