unscrew the screws in the handle, on the armrest (the driver side has one more i think) and then just pop the door off. it's hella hard to get them back on though. just be warned

Remove the screw in the door handle plate, its behind a little black cover. Slide the plastic part forward and it will pop out, then disconnect the power lock switch. The handle/lock assembly has to come off next, take the 2 philips screws out then pop the clips off the control rods and the rods slide up and out of the handles. On the passenger side, there is a philips screw in that opening where the handle plate came from, that has to be removed as well.

There are 2 or 3 screws in the armrests/pull handle... one or two under the window switches (maybe behind covers) and one in the door pull part... looking down on the handle, you'll see a semi-rectangular cover for the screw.

The sail panel (small black panel, covering the bolts for the mirror) pop off, this needs to be done to allow the panel to come off easily and to avoid scratching the sail panel.

Start at the bottom of the door panel, and get your fingers behind the panel, and start pulling fairly gently... the panel will pop off slowly... be careful not to lose the small "plug" at the top corner of the panel, near where the sail panel was. Once the panel is popped loose, it slides up and comes off the door... then just disconnect the wirring (be careful on the driverside, the wire for the security light is short... so remove the panel slowly) and the panel is off...

To re-install... just reverse the process.

Later today i'll take some pictures, and maybe this can be archived... a lot of people seem to ask about this.
