Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.

In this video, we're going to show you how to remove and replace the rear door panel on this 2005 Ford Focus. We'll show you on the passenger side, but the driver side is the same procedure. The items you'll need for this is a 6mm socket and ratchet, T15 Torx Bit, a 1/4" socket, a pick, and a flat blade screwdriver.

Using a pick, reach down behind your window crane, and pull up on the metal clip. You just want to grab it in the rounded spot, pull it right up. Once you do that, the window crank will pull right off the door.

Next, using the flat blade screwdriver, pry off your pull handle panel. Behind it, you'll see these two 1/4" bolts. We'll just fast-forward as Don removes those. Pry out the small panel behind the door handle. Behind here, there's a T15 Torx Bolt, go ahead and remove that.

Lining your door panel, there are six T15 Torx Bolts. We'll fast-forward as Don removes those. Pry off the triangular panel at the top of your door panel. Pull the door panel out, then lift it up and over the window sill. Then, over the triangle and its crape.

Now, to replace the door panel, slide it onto your interior door handle, and push it down into the window sill. Once you have that lined up, replace those two 1/4" bolts in the pull handle. Replace your pull handle panel. Now, replace the T15 behind the door handle. Put that little screw cover back in place.

Next, put the clip back into your window crank and push it on to that stud. We'll fast-forward as Don replaces those six T15 bolts lined at the door panel. Push your triangular panel back into place and you're all set.
