In this tutorial, we will see how to remove the front door panel on a Volkswagen Golf, a very simple and quick operation. First, open the door you will be working on, then unclip the handle cover by prying with a preferably plastic spatula, so as not to leave marks.

Next, unscrew the screws that have just been exposed with a Torx key, also unscrew the lower screws, and using the spatula, separate the panel from the door. At this point, simply disconnect both the lock cable and the window regulator connector and install the replacement by following the reverse procedure.
