Default 2015 A8 Door Panel Removal

Looking for some info on how to remove the front drivers side door panel on a 15' A8. I have the screw behind the speaker removed and the one by the grab handle. It still seems to be stuck behind the wood grain piece at the back of the door. Anyone know if it is just a push in clip or is there another screw that I need to gain access too? Any help would be appreciated.

There are two screws behind the wood panel. You have to remove it first. Just carefully pry it out. Next to the entry light is an impression. Press hard on it in order to unclip one special clip. Last are 7 regular clips all around. They are all fresh so I hope none will brake.

Just curious, why are you doing this?

Thank you so much. I have to remove the panel to get the side mirror and upper trim off so I can paint the door. The owner had something fall into the drivers door while parked in the garage and opted to have the door repaired instead of replaced. Thanks

Does anyone have the PDF from Erwin by chance? I have to do this on my 2013 as three of four door panels are coming lose. It appears that someone did work on the doors. Maybe to replace window regulators. Not sure what happened there.
