Im trying to take off the door panels on a '92. IS there a hidden screw or a trick to get it off, i found 3 screws on the front doors, and 2 on the rear.
 






make sure you take out all the screws around the edges of the front door for example and where the handle is. Then basically just pull the door panel off a corner/or section at a time and work your way around. There are clips holding the panel on so you have to pull with a little effort but not too hard that you strip the clips. If you hear a popping/ripping type of sound don't worry it's just the clips comming out.
 






Don't forget to first pop out the black trim peice behind the handle with a screwdriver. The top of the doorbelow the window also has a lip that the door panel has to be lifted off......Good luck:D
