How do you remove the door panel (passenger side rear) on a Volkswagen Polo? Before starting the disassembly, disconnect the battery terminals located in the engine bay. Use a screwdriver to remove the securing pins on the handle located on the door panel (remove the cover), then unscrew the pins in the plastic of the door opening lever.

Detach the speaker grille cover with the lever, then unscrew the screws present on it. Finally, pull the panel off with your hands and unclip it from the door.

Refit everything in reverse order.
