Default Front Passenger Window Switch Replacement

Hello all,

my first post in here as I have just picked up a A4 last Saturday and I'm figuring a lot of stuff out about the car(switched from a 2007 Avensis so quite the upgrade).

My first question is about window switch replacement on the passenger side. as I can't seem to be able to find any tutorial on how to get to it.
All the videos I could find on youtube are for older models and the layout on the door on this one is quite different and I'm not really sure what to pull to get to the switch.

Does anyone have any tips before I go to a garage?
It seems like it should be a simple job so I don't want to pay someone to do it unless I actually have to, at the moment I'm just afraid of making unnecessary scratches or dents.

Thanks

All the Audi door cards are pretty much the same. Use a plastic/nylon interior removal tool at the various clip locations. Before starting look for screws in the armrest and door handle areas - they may be hidden behind plastic caps. Starting at the lower outside door edge is probably the easiest and take your time by placing the removal tool as close as you can to a clip and gently levering the clip out of the door frame hole. If you find an area that's not moving, double check for a screw. Patience is a virtue when doing this type of removal.

Thanks for the tips, the main problem I have though at the moment is to actually locating all the clips and what order do pieces come off.

There is one screw that I have easy access to but when I took it out literally nothing has changed, everything stayed as tight as it was before, that's why I decided to look for help

Funny this thread just resurfaced - take a look at the initial posts and see if that helps you for panel removal; lots of good pictures there.
