might be then that those bolts only are on car with rear door curtains then. I have those bolts and I also have the el. curtains in the door. but if you dont have it just remove the one behind the tweeter and pocket and try to snap out the door panel- you can also look for my DIY on the subject. I posted it a few weeks ago so can´t be too deep in the archives.

yeah just snap it off around the side and lower edges, if you after that can´t just wiggle it upwards until if comes off there´s prob some more trick to it so don´t rip too hard. my guess thoguh is that if you have no bolts behind the trim it should just snap out around the edges and then lift off

Front Door removal diagram
This is a great post, thanks!
I was wondering if anyone has a 'front door' version of this diagram?
I'm trying to replace my front wing mirror (Audi quoted £230 + vat to fit).
If someone could post this, or point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

This is the right direction. Not that it is too difficult to snapshot few pages, photobucket them and post it here, but as you can see there is money to be saved doing things yourself and it is not really perfect to ask every time somebody to look into manual for you.
