rip the panel off starting at the bottom, then pull it upwards. the power windows/locks will have a plug you can undo. there's also gonna be 3 screws, on on the outside of the door panel, one in the little ash-tray thing, and one in the door handle. on the passengerside, there's gonna be one by the window switch, one on the back, and one on the underside of the door, under the handle

its very simple dude,,,
three screws i guess, one in the door handle, one if you have power windows inside the handle hole(i dunno how to tell ya), one or two one the sides,,, and then just hold the bottom of the panel and just pull, but becareful cuz the top is kinda hingy type you g2 pull it up afterwards,,,
its soo hard for me to explain,, sorry,,, :D :D
