ok my inside door handle broke in my integra, which prevents me from opening the door from the inside. Also i am trying to replace the taillights.
How do you take off the door panel? and the taillights?
thanks
the tail lights are covered by 3 plastic pieces. the center piece unscrews at the bottom then pops up. its held on by a few clips across the length of the panel and the two side panels are huge so just pull them away from the back wall just enough to access the tail lights. you should have enough space to unscrew all of the screws at this point.
the door panel there are screws in the handle backing, hand cup thing under the handle and a few more on the door. once all the screws are out i find it easier to start at the bottom and pop out towards you and as you get towards the top you will have to pop out and up. be aware that there are two plugs for power that will need to be disconnected before you can fully take off the panel.

Remove screw #29 in handle case #8/21, the rest are clips, #34 in first link [14 of them] as mentioned, it is best to start at the bottom pulling straight out with a quick short jerk, then lift panel up over window “lip” starting at back of panel, keep panel bottom as close to door as possible without clips going back into holes, you may also have to hit, [use hand] the top inside edge of door panel to release it from the “lip”. 94
