How to disassemble the door panel of the Subaru Forester

Model: Subaru Forester MK 4, SJ - Years 2012-2019
Part: Door trim panel

Today we will see the main instructions on how to disassemble and remove the front door panel of the Subaru Forester. First, we open the front door of the car and start removing the plastic cover of the handle, unscrewing all the fastening screws we find on the sides and under the handle; then we gently detach the panel on the sides until it is completely removed, disconnecting the handle cable and the electric connector of the window switch, as shown in the video. At this point, it will be possible to access the internal components of the door!
