Removing the Door Panel

• 1). Open the window of your Camry so you don't bump it when you take off the door panel.
  
  
• 2). Unhook the negative (black) battery cable. Use a wrench to loosen the nut that holds the cable in place. Lift the cable and move it as far away as you can from the battery.
  
  
• 3). Unclip the triangular-shaped panel on the upper right corner of the door panel. Pry off the cover on the screw underneath the panel with a flat screwdriver. Then take out the screw behind it and the two screws along the bottom edge of the door panel with a Phillips screwdriver.
  
  
• 4). Pop off the circular plastic cover on the armrest with a flat screwdriver. Remove the screw underneath it and the two screws on the underside of the armrest with the screwdriver.
  
  
• 5). Remove the screw near the front of the door panel and the two screws along the bottom of the panel.
  
  
• 6). Open the inside door handle and pry off the cover on the screw behind the handle. Then remove that screw.
  
  
• 7). Remove the four clips that secure the control panel for the power window. Pull up and out to remove the panel.
  
  
• 8). Wrap your hands around the bottom edge of each side of the door. Push up, then pull out the door panel. Set the door aside where it will be safe.
