In this tutorial, we can see how to disassemble the door panel on the Volkswagen Transporter van, a very simple and quick operation. First, we open the door we will be working on, then we unclip the handle cover using a plastic spatula.

Next, we unscrew the screws we just exposed using a Torx key, continue with the central screw and finish with the three lower screws. At this point, we just need to remove the window switch console, disconnect the connector, separate the panel from the door by prying along the perimeter, and disconnect the lock cable.
