Driver Side Door Panel Removal Help?

I have a 2017 Acura RDX. Has anyone removed their driver side door panel - i.e. upgrading of speakers etc.

I am looking to remove the door panel. I can clearly see the 2 screws right behind the door handle lever cover.

I believe there should be at least one more screw? Has anyone done this and knows where there may be additional screws?



Thanks!

There's another screw in the door handle that is hidden beneath a cover. The cover was a pain to remove. I used a small, thin screwdriver to pull one side up and pop the cover off. Once you get those screws out, just use a panel remover tool to pull the whole panel out.

Thanks for the reply, I checked the parts list/diagram for the door panel over the weekend and made the assumption that there was a panel under there

However for future reference if anyone searches this post.

The third screw is located in the "coin holder" on the arm rest, right behind the Driver side window/mirror switches. The cover plate is a rubber/grippy surface 100% bendable, theres no slots for you to shove a screw driver in so you might miss it at first glance. You can pry it up with a small flat head to expose the screw.


Has anyone found any location to purchase the Service manuals for this car?
