The first step to removing an Audi A4 door panel is finding all the screws. There are three screws around the perimeter of the door panel. Remove those screws then move to the handle. There is one screw on the inside that will need to be removed. Once you remove that screw pull the handle off and you will likely find two more screws, depending on the model. It is best to use a magnetic screwdriver to remove the screws on the door panel.

Once you have removed all screws, pull the door panel toward you. It will pop off roughly an inch. Look inside the door panel using a flashlight. There may be electrical connections that can be unplugged with your hand.
