How do you remove the door panel on a 1999-2005 Vauxhall Zafira?

door panel just undo all the screws on the panel but you have to pop out the ashtray/blanking panel and also the handel/pocket in the panel to access a hidden screw if its the front door you will have to remove the escuchion panel or you will damage the door panel you also have to unclip the door pul handle from the bar behind the panel hope this helps!!! Alternative answer:

I just did it for the front left (driver) door of my Opel Zafira 2004 2.2 DTI Elegance:

- Unscrew three Phillips screws at the bottom of the door - Unscrew one Torx screw (or possibly Philips) at the bottom of the handle (the part you use to close the door) - Open the window all the way down

- Lift out the control knobs for electrical windows. Use screwdriver as a lever from the top side of the knob assembly

- Disconnect the knobs from the wires

- Push out (upwards) the part of the handle that had a screw in it. This part has a plastic clip that can be accessed through a hole where window control knobs were.

- Unscrew two more Phillips screws that were revealed after removing the handle

- remove the knob assembly for controlling electrical mirrors (similar way to the window control knobs) and remove the Philips screw behind it - Lift out the tweeter speaker. Use screwdriver as a lever and disconnect the speaker.

- Remove Philips screw behind the tweeter. - starting from bottom of the panel pull it off the door by releasing plastic plugs. Do it carefully not to break the plugs. There should be 3 per side. There are no plugs at the upper side of the panel (where the window is) so stop pulling when you have freed both sides - Push the panel upwards. This should result in the rubber part that is attached to the panel coming off from the metal edge of the door (You may need to get a blunt screwdriver and prise off the rubber from the door)

To refit the panel, check if all plastic plugs were removed from the door. It happens that some are left in the door instead of the panel. If so, remove them from the door and refit them in the panel before refitting the panel.

There are four bolts that hold the seat to the frame of the car. Put seat all the way forward and take out the 2 back bolts - then move seat back to take out the front bolts and the seat should come right out. If it is a power seat you have to disconnect the electrical wires first - obviously. Had to do this not long ago....good luck!
