The method for removing the door panel of the 10th Generation Accord: 1. First, remove the control panel with the wiring harness; 2. Remove the screws securing the door trim panel; 3. Take off the small decorative panel on the door interior trim; 4. Pry open the edge between the door panel and the interior trim to separate them; 5. Remove the screws at the bottom of the door and lift the door panel upwards to detach it. The 10th Generation Accord is a mid-size car produced by GAC Toyota, with body dimensions of 4893mm in length, 1862mm in width, and 1449mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2830mm. The front suspension type is MacPherson independent suspension, and the rear suspension type is multi-link independent suspension.
I've removed the door panels of the 10th-gen Accord quite a few times. As a DIY enthusiast who loves working on cars, I recommend just having a Phillips screwdriver and plastic pry tools ready. The first step is to remove the small cover on the inner door handle - it pops off easily with a gentle pry, but avoid using metal tools to prevent scratches. Then unscrew the mounting screws, typically there are two or three located under the handle and near the side mirror. Locate the clip points along the bottom edge of the panel and slowly pry from one corner using the pry tool - you'll hear a 'pop' sound indicating the clip has released. Be careful when handling the window switch connector; don't yank it forcefully. Take it slow overall to avoid breaking clips - the first attempt might take about 30 minutes. After removal, you can service the window regulator or replace speakers. When reinstalling, just align the clips and press gently. Regular cleaning inside the door panel can reduce the need for frequent removals.
