Going from memory here....

Unscrew the door lock pin.
Unscrew the bolt holding in the plastic trim piece at the rear of the door.
Remove trim piece.
Pry off the seat switch buttons and the platic cover underneath them.
Un-seat the rod from the inner door release handle. You'll need something to pull on the rod to create some slack. I've also done this after loosening the door panel.
Door panel should be ready to come out. Push up on the bottom of the door panel and work your way up slowly.
