Default removing door panel

Are there any tricks to removing the left front door panel on an '06 XLT?

I see theres some bolts/screws at the bottom of the panel and there seems to be one behind an access panel under the handle.

Are there any hidden in the armrest area? Do I need to remove the window switch panel and if so, how?

I broke the mirror today and need to replace it.

Thanks.

So the switch panel pulls off towards the interior of the truck? Also how does the speaker panel come off without breaking it?

Ive got a habit of breaking things when it comes to taking them apart and dont want to break anything on my truck.

Yeah it just pops out. Go slow and don't force things and you'll be fine. Door panel is really easy and only takes a few mins

Hopefully I can find a mirror tomorrow and put it on tomorrow night after work.

I replaced the mirror today. It was pretty easy to do. Nothing broke either.

Yeah, I just get nervous taking things apart, especially on my truck.
