How about a 96 W210 rear door panel?
My regulator just crapped out on me today.

Ocean, here's the info on the front door. I have to believe the rear is similar:

Just be sure to use a pry tool on the W210. Unlike older models, MB went to those cheap American car maker style push-in plastic clips (read: GM). Even cheaper, they are "glued" to the panels, so there is no simple lift and remove like on older MBs - you have to PRY to get the panel off. Often the glue will separate meaning the clip will be left in the door, so prying carefully as close as possible to the clip is essential.

Removal of the rear door panel is no big deal on the W210, just remove the plastic shrouding behind the door release lever to access the screw(s), also be sure to get the 2 big screws in/around the armrest. The rest, like I said, is just a matter of careful prying, then lift up as a final step to separate from where the panel meets the glass.

FWIW, the regulators can be very hard to remove and are not inexpensive. A redneck alternative is to use a 2 x 4 with a screw in it wedged in there to hold the window up in lieue of costly parts replacement - I did this for someone recently. Not the proper fix, I know, but you can make that call.

Actually I just remembered I did the 2 x 4 trick on a W124 and a W126. For the W210, due to more limited working space, the easiest redneck fix is to push the window all the way up, then use a small radiator hose clamp wrapped around the regulator track. Snug it up really tight to hold the window up and it won't go anywhere.

One more request for the W202 pre face lift.

the inner door pull handle doesn't seem to want to come off the door shell.... Doesn't look like there is a screw on the handle to remove it either.

I went through all the clips and stuff but it just won't budge... the pull handle is the part where I can peek in from a semi-loosened panel that is sandwiching the panel to the door. I don't know how hard should I try to pull the handle as it feels really solid with the door I don't want to pull the door shell inwards with excessive force.

The link to "Front inner door panel "107-chassis 280SL, 350SL, 380SL, 450SL, 500SL, 560SL" doesn't work. http://sl107.com/groupee_files/attac...942%2Fdoor.pdf
I PM'd a thread to substitute for it. Just trying to support the forum spirit.
