Have a friend with a 92 300SEL who is trying to put new speakers in his front doors in the factory place. He has tried getting the panel off, and can get the whole thing completely llos and ready to come off, but he can't get the door handle itself.

How do you get the door handle portion of the panel disengaged so you an remove the panel.

Is there a clip be hind it? or does it detach form the panel itself?

He has the door at the point where it is basically only attached at the door handle.

Any help and or diagrams would be appreciated.

I'm thinking that there might be a plastic cover that hides a screw in the handle area. or does the whole black surround just pop out somehow? do I have to pull it forward or something?

Thanks for the help.
