Step 6: Disconnect Wiring (if applicable)

• If your door has electrical components (e.g., window controls), carefully disconnect the wiring harness.
• Make sure to note how the connections are made for reinstallation.

Step 7: Remove the Door Trim

• With the panel and any wiring disconnected, carefully lift the door trim away from the door.
• Place it on a soft surface to avoid scratches while you work on other components.
