How do I remove the door panel of the Smart 451?

Model: Smart Smart 451 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Car door

In order to remove the door panel of the Smart 451 you need to use torx wrenches to loosen the bolts that secure the triangular cover at the rear-view mirror. Once this has been removed, it will be necessary to loosen the bolts that secure the mirror and remove the latter as well. Then you will need to unscrew the bolts located on the side of the door, near the locking mechanism. Then you will have to remove the gasket at the base of the glass, to remove the two screws below. Once these screws have also been removed, the panel can be detached from the door.
