I'm sorry, thought I got all the info...the jeep is a 99 and the illustration you've shown is completely different from what I have in my jeep. There's only three visible screws to my knowledge, one by the side mirror, another by the door handle, and the last one is in the grip area in the arm rest...I took all three out but didn't budge..didn't want to risk with force because I don't know the locations of the retaining clips..please help! Thanks.

Suggested Repair

Check the bottom of the door panel for hidden screws, including fasteners under carpet or trim. Then pry the panel off slowly and look in the gap to see where retaining clips are still holding it.

Conversation Summary

A 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited owner said the driver-side window slid off its track and asked how to remove the interior door panel. Three visible screws near the mirror, door handle, and armrest were removed, but the panel did not release. The expert advised looking along the bottom for hidden screws and slowly prying the panel while checking the gap for retaining clips.
