Door panel removal?

[OuterJersey]

Has anyone taken off a front door panel? Is it difficult? I put my plastic yearly town parking pass in the rubber of the side door so I wouldn’t forget to hang it up. Guess what happened when I opened the door? You can’t make this shit up. Will try to get a replacement but I may have to get it out somehow. Thank you in advance.

I didn't even notice that. That is interesting because these type of pictures in the workshop manual are usually pretty accurate.
