left rear door lock actuator not working, how do you get the door panel off? I could not figure out how to undo it at the door handle.

Hello,

There are few plastic covers that need to be removed first, that will expose the screws that keeps the panel in place.
Those plastic covers can be removed by small flat head screwdriver.
Also, there are several plastic fasteners that snaps in to mound the door panel.

Here is a helpful guide:

I have attached the door panel removal procedure below.

Please let me know of any questions.
Thank you.
