Video tutorial

In this video, see how to remove the rear panel of the door on a Volkswagen Golf MK6 three-door. First, lower the rear seat and then remove the plastic side panel using a plastic spatula to avoid scratching the paint or the plastic of the panel.

Carefully remove the panel without damaging any parts. You can find a set of these tools, for example, on Amazon with code B073QJNSL2 priced at £5.99, with free delivery for Prime customers.

In the video, we see the panel removed, which connects from the rear to the floor and to the front door: try not to disassemble, as much as possible, the seatbelt. Under the main panel, you will find a second panel where the speaker is installed; you will naturally need to remove this as well: be very careful when disassembling not to break the clips, whether metal or plastic, as we need to consider them when reassembling, as they will make noise during driving.
