LED pain in the ***

I tried putting in my led light bulb on the door and as i was trying to take out the stock bulb the little fixture that the light is plugged into got pushed into the dam door. Now my stock bulb is still plugged in but loose inside the door. I need to take the pain in the *** door panel off, I tried searching for this stupid **** and cant find anything w/e maybe im not searching good enough or something but i also dont know diddly **** about cars, doors, taking things part in cars, etc. so its not like i can just go with the flow without possibly breaking something(fuc that). Can anyone either send me the search link or explain to me how to take off y door panel and install the light bulb because getting the stock light bulb out is a bitch when your fingures keep slipping off it. thank you, i was really excited that my bulbs FINALLY came in and its just annoying that this had to happen, i feel all this is to much work for a little light thanks again

happened to me as well.
It's not too tough to loosen the bottom corner of the door, I think it pops right out if you pull on the corner. from there, take a screwdriver with tape and you'll be set. (beats taking the whole door off)

Pannel pops right off. If you grab it good enough, you won't need a scewdriver just a good tug( that's what she said) I said it so noone else would.
But it's simple if one of the little plastic snap clips falls off it will slide right back into place then a good push from your hand and slap it back in place.
