This was taken from instructions on installing new door handles but applies for remoiving the door panel:
Remove the red reflector lens with a small flat screwdriver to access the first door screw.
Then remove the door switch panel by gently prying up with your fingers or screwdriver. The rear doors you pry in the middle, the front doors you pry towards the front. Unplug the wire harnesses and lay the panel aside. Now just simply lift up and over the door lock. You'll also need to pull the black beauty trim off that covers the side mirror bolts to get the front door panel off. It just pulls off.
