This procedure will work with any model 240. First take a plastic knife and pry the cover off of the top of the manual window handle to expose the screw which holds it on. Remove the screw and then the handle. Next pop out the round plastic plugs in the armrest using a small screwdriver. This will expose the screws which hold the arm rest to the door. Remove the three screws and then pivot the arm rest on its top anchoring shaft about 90 degrees. The shaft has little wings which must be lined up with slots before the armrest can be completely removed.
For the map pocket there are three small plastic pins with slots in their heads which must be turned 90 degrees before they can be pulled out. Once these three pins are out. Gently lift the pocket up to unhook it from the two screws which it hangs on.
Now, grab an old butter knife and slide it under the panel at one of the bottom corners. Then slide it up until you feel it hit one of the plastic clips which holds the panel on. Then pry the panel away from the door until you hear the clip "pop" out. Then slide the knife up the edge of the panel until you feel the next clip. Then just pry and "pop" the next clip. Work your way around the left, right, and bottom edges of the panel until you have popped out all of the clips. Finally unscrew the knob on the door lock to remove it, then lift up on the panel to unhook it from the door. If it does not move up, then go back and check to see if you may have missed one of the clips.
The exterior door handle is attached by only two screws. Remove these, then the handle will be free to be removed from the outside. It will take a little finesse to get it out, but pulling up on the lever will make it easier.
Good luck!

The inner door panel of a Saturn is not removable, it is integral to the door frame. However, you can remove the outer door panel. First, remove the outer door handle; lift the handle enough to reveal the pins that hold the handle to the door latch mechanism, then press out the two pins and set the handle aside. Next, open the door and remove the screws around the perimeter of the outer door panel. After the screws are removed, the outer door panel should lift off easily.

There are several screws around the perimeter of the door, some near the bottom. They must all be removed. From the outside, lift the handle and notice that there are two pins holding the door handle in place. They need to be pressed out, then you can pull the handle off the pegs.
