I haven't remove it before but got you some useful info.

2000 Acura TL
Rear Door Panel Removal/Installation

Special Tool Required
Trim pad remover, Snap-on A177A or equivalent, commercially available.
1. Remove the inner handle (A). Take care not to scratch the door panel.
-1 Pry out the cap (B), and remove the screw.
-2 Move the inner handle forward and half-way out, then disconnect the inner handle rod (C).




2. Remove the screw from the armrest portion of the door panel. Release the clips that hold the door panel (A) with a commercially available trim pad remover (B), then remove
the door panel by pulling it upward, and disconnecting the power window switch connector (C). Remove the door panel with as little bending as possible to avoid creasing or breaking it.




3. Install the panel in the reverse order of removal, and note these items:
Replace any damaged clips.
Make sure the connector is plugged in properly, and the rod is connected properly.
Check the window and power door lock operation.
