Hey guys, the door handle on the exterior of the passenger side door is about to come off and I need to get in there to fix it. I was wondering how to remove the interior door cover so I can access the handle? Thanks for any help.
 
remove the window roller handle and door latch handle (interior), then take something stiff and skinny (I used a butter knife) and gently pry the clips from the door.

they are a U shaped, so if you can slide the butter knife up to where you are pushing on the panel clip and not the door panel it will not rip the carboard.

kind of hard to describe with words. but if you saw the clip you could see that there is a two pronged end that goes into the door, and a curved U shape that slides into the door panel.
