if you are takeing the door trim off look for hidden screws there is a couple there

[gleno5]

yeah i got them all but it is still getting caught up the top along the window. should i just give it abiut for pressure

Brute force and ignorance! works everytime, sometimes.

just give it a bit of tap with your hand under the trim and it should come of

[gleno5]

ahk well i will give it ago and see what the outcome is

[Hot-Rod]

the door trim slides up and off the door seal. Once you have removed all the screws it should lift off.

also any ideas with the back door or would the coat hanger be the best one??

theres a srew that holds the inner door handle and some also have screw under that again

yes you need to take the window winder off before you can take the door card off, if you have electric windows you need to take the switches out before you take remove the door cards

the inside panel is getting caught up the top right side where the pop up lock is located, how do i remove it so i can lift the panel away???

[fitz_vt]

the pop up lock is actually ment to be removed first before taking the door cards off. to remove insert a sharp pointy tool into the centre of the orange part of the popup lock, carefully prise the orange insert from the popup lock slide the popup lock button off of the control rod and remove the door card.
