Could someone be as kind as to tell me how to remove drivers door panel. I need to replace the window switch and don't want to tear the panel up. Thanks in advance.

I just removed mine yesterday. Unfortunately, I didn't take any pictures, but it's pretty easy.
Remove the bottom storage door. It just snaps off at the hinges. No need to remove the screws. Then pry the two plastic caps out at the top corners and remove the two screws. There are two more at the bottom. Then the black plastic handle snaps off to revel two more torx screws. Then with a panel removal tool work your way around the outside edges to pop the retaining clips out and it's off. It helps to have a bucket or something under the door to rest the panel on so it's not hanging on the door latch cable or you can even disconnect the latch cable is easy to pry out as well. Hope this helps.
