Here are the items you'll need for this repair: Interior trim removal tool, 7mm socket, 10mm socket, ratchet, socket extension, Phillips screwdriver, flat blade screwdriver, T30 socket, painter’s tape, pick tool

Remove the two Phillips head screws inside of the armrest on the door. Do this with a Phillips head screwdriver. To remove the bezel around the interior door handle, you need to kind of get in there with a trim tool or a flat blade screwdriver, and push down on the tab to release it. There are three: one at the top, one at the bottom, and one on the side.

Remove the extension at the top of the door panel by prying out with a trim tool. Using your trim tool, pry up at the back of the power window switch. Lift it up and pull back to release the hook at the front. Disconnect the connector for your tweeter. Pop up the tab on this two pin connector at the front of the window switch, and pop the connector out, and then push down on the tab for the main connector and remove that from the switch. I'm using a pick here. You could also use a small flat blade screwdriver or a trim tool if you had to, really whatever works best for you.

Using the trim tool, pop out on the door reflector and remote the connector. This is another one of the ones we'll have to lift up on the tab with a pick. Using a trim tool, pry out the bottom of the door. You may need to work it a little bit to figure out where the tabs are. You'll also need to pop out this pin at the top on the front of the door. Once all the tabs are out, lift the panel up and remove it from the door.

Peel off the inner water shield on the door. There's also a small piece over in the corner. Make sure your window is rolled all the way down. There are ten 7 millimeter screws around the perimeter of the inner panel. One under the speaker here that's a little tricky to see, and a 10 millimeter at the front. We'll need to remove all of those with a socket and ratchet. Pull the panel forward. Pull out the handle rod. It may help to have a tool to help you get some leverage on it. You'll also want to pop that out of its guide clip. Same thing with the lock rod down here. We'll also need to pop this out of its guide rod and pull it out of the lock actuator as well. Pop out the tab for the courtesy light in the door. Lift up on the cover for the door lock actuator, and remove that connector. You need to fish it out and around. Pop that retainer through, and then pop out all the rest of the retaining clips to remove the harness from the door.

You'll also need to unplug the window motor and the door speaker. Pull the harness through the door. Slide the door panel forward until the window roller is out of its channel, then slide the guide out of the back, and remove the assembly from your vehicle.

Lift up on the glass in the door. Bring it all the way up, and use some painter's tape to secure it in the up position. Move the 10 millimeter bolt on the door jamb side of the handle. You'll also need to remove the 10 millimeter bolt on the backside of the door handle. You'll need to remove both of the rods for the door handle, as well as the door lock. You may need a small flat blade screwdriver to help get the leverage you need to remove them. It's kind of tough to see, but you can sort of feel in there with a small screwdriver. Hopefully get enough leverage to pop that out. Remove the door handle from the door.

Now just like you did to remove your lock rod, you're going to want to pry this clip up, or you can just split it like I am here, and remove the latch from the vehicle. Using a T30 Torx socket and a ratchet, remove the three T-30 Torx bolts securing the latch mechanism into the door. Using a 7 millimeter socket and ratchet, we'll remove these three screws. You can then remove the door vent, drop down your latch mechanism, and remove it from the door.

Reinstall the door latch mechanism. Line it back up with its slots and reinstall the three T30 Torx screws. Reinstall the T30 Torx screws with your Torx bit and ratchet. Reinstall the door vent with all three of your 7 millimeter screws.

Reconnect the door latch rod, and reinstall the door handle into the vehicle. Line up your door handle and reinstall the two 10-millimeter bolts. Pop the lock rod back into its clip.

Remove the tape that's holding your window up, and support the window from the bottom side, then carefully lower your window and allow it to rest on the bottom stop.

Reconnect your door speaker and your window motor, and send the rest of your wiring harness back through the door. Slide the back half of your window regulator back into the window track. Once the back is in, slide forward and install the front part of the regulator into the glass as well. Reconnect the door lock as well as the door handle. Don't forget to engage the lock actuator, and snap both rods back into their guides.

Realign your door panel. Reinstall your wiring harness. Make sure that all the tabs and retainers go back in their appropriate places. Make sure you run the harness through, and reconnect the door actuator as well. Lock the clasp in for your reflector, courtesy light, and reinstall the ten 7 millimeter screws around the perimeter, as well as the one 10 millimeter. Reinstall the water shield. Sometimes this adhesive doesn't really want to stick a second time, if that's the case, it's all right to put some tape on there to secure the edges.

Pull your wire harness back through the door and lay the top edge into the door frame. Line up the plastic containers and push them all back into place. Reinstall the inner door handle bezel by lining it up and snapping it in. Reinstall your reflector. Place the upper door extension into place. Reinstall the two Phillips head screws in the armrest.
