Minor correction..

Soobie svx93 is correct except for one detail. Inside the pocket, you only need to release 2 screws at the base of the pocket. The little one at the front of the pocket only holds the plastic moulding to the door skin, does not hold the door skin to the frame. So leave this little one in place

For taking the little plastic piece out at the door handle; you will see a slot on the inside,,screwdriver blade size. It needs pushing down to disengage the "clicker", then drawing inwards to let it free of the catch. I found a screwdriver useless for this. It damages the plastic piece, keeps slipping off as you try to draw the plastic inwards. My advice, use a sharp point penknife, ignore the screwdriver blade shape of the slot. Push down into the slot with the knife point till it disengages, draw the blade inwards to clear the plastic from the slot. Then release upwards, out it pops.

When you have it out, then take out the small golden domehead screw from under the handle.

Assuming at this point you have already removed the two self tappers at the front of the panel, then the bottom and two sides of the doorpanel will have pop-in plastic connectors holding it in place. Pulling out firmly but gently will release all these around. Then the door panel lifts up and off. You will find two connectors to unclip, a cream one for the electric windows and a pink one for the door trailing edge light.

That's it.

Once you remove them carefully pry the door panel away from the door itself...its help in by little plastic clips so be careful.
