- Open door.
- On the door trim itself, the section that meets the dash, remove the clip that holds the trim to the door frame.
- Remove screw that hold the plastic surround around the inside door latch ... screw is located jst under the lock itself, underneath a plastic cover.
- Remove screw that holds the plastic door handle on the inside of the trim (armrest)... screw is located in the middle.
- Run your hand/screwdriver along the bottom and side of the trim, and pull it outwards once u get enough leverage.
- The trim will simply unhook itself from the window seal area
- Ensure that you unclip the wire for the power windows prior to running away with the trim ;)

taking the door trim off is realy easy

there is one bolt in the centre of the door handle that you use to open the door when your sitting in the car, remove that.

there is also another bolt on the door handle the handle that u use to pull the door close, romove that.

the last bolt that u need to remove is a plastic bolt so be gental its just under your side mirror its black and apears out of no where, remove that.

then you simple put your finger in between the door n door trim from underneath and pull outwards. the trim is being held on by clips.
