Door Panel removal for Sedans

Hello

I have been through the threads and see many DIY's for the coupe speaker installation. I am trying to do one for a sedan. The steps to get the panel out differ for my 06 LX Sedan. I have no screws to remove from the armrest portion or at least not visible. I treated my self with a nice pair of focal speakers that I want to install. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
-D

There's one clip and one screw at the door handle location. In the end, you don't have to remove the door handle from the cables that are attached to it. Once you have the door panel off the door itself, you can slip the door handle through its opening with the cables still attached.

Next,



-1 Pry up on the rear edge of the switch panel to release the rear clip using the appropriate trim tool.
-2 Pull out along the edge of the panel to release all of the hooks (B).
-3 Pull the switch panel rearward to release the front hook (C).
-4 Disconnect the power mirror switch connector (D) (driver's) and the power window switch connector (E).

Next, remove the screw (below).

This is great I love this Forum!!! This looks easier than coupes. I do have one more question. To pry off the control panel on the door can I use a Flat head ?

I owe you a case of I have a case I will break into this weekend while installing my speakers.

Thanks again
