Not sure, post up a picture on here, but I'm certain that the handles come off, and there are screws behind it.

The panel is usually mostly held on with strong clips, these also like to break. So you may want to get some before removing.

Remove the screws # 36 & 40 unclip the handle trim #15/16/17 then undo the screws #10

Release door trim from clips

– Swivel rear area of door trim panel upwards slightly.

– Pull door trim panel out of window slot.

– Now unhook Bowden cable from interior door handle on inside of door trim.

– Depending on vehicle equipment, disconnect wiring connectors from door trim

Installing

Note Before installing, check fasteners for damage and renew if necessary.

Caution

Before installing door trim, ensure that the locking mechanisms of all clips are in -position 1-.

It is not possible to install the door trim without problem if clips are in -position 2-!

– Install in reverse order of removal.

Note

When fitting door trim panel, first slide hook (front section of door trim panel) under front trim panel cover.

Then push door trim panel into window slot seal and press into clips, working from top to bottom.
