5. Remove the trim panel evenly by detaching the hooks at the rear of the panel from the door.
6. Unhook the control cable from the rear of the hook once it is accessible (Fig. 17.6).
7. Disconnect the wiring connector from the power window, power mirror/central lock switches (if any), from the bass speaker (subwoofer) and the high-frequency speaker (tweeter). Release the wiring from all fasteners at the rear of the door panel (Fig. 17.7).
8. Remove the trim panel from the door, noting the position of the moldings along the top edge of the door (Fig. 17.8).
