4 Wheel Drive/SUVs: MDX door panel rmoval, acura mdx, window switches

Question
I have a 2001 Acura MDX.  The exterior door handle on the passenger side (middle row door, not front passenger door) is damaged and I need to change it.  Actually, the exterior handle was sliced off in a little mishap.  Can you tell me how to remove the middle door panel on my MDX to access the door handle assembly from the inside?

Answer
Robert,

I have done some research on your door panel and it looks to be fairly easy. All you will need to do is first look for any screws or bolts in the door pull handle, typically in from the top of the door pull. you may have to pull some small cosmetic plastic covers off to access but remove all screws and place in a plastic bag for keeping track for later. after all door pulls are removed make sure any power window switches are removed and unplugged for better access then start at bottom of the door on a corner and just pull out on the panel. there are just some push clips holding the panel on so they will just pull straight out and release. work your way around the door until both sides and the bottom are free the pick up the door pane straight up and it should slide right out past the window at the top. you may have to slide it to the front or to the back to totally release it for removal but just follow theses steps and take your time and it will go smoothly

Thanks!
