Why do you need to remove the panels to install the pockets? I didn't when I did mine.

Remove window winder(pull plastic cover off, screw is underneath) take the door opener off( black plastic inner bit levers out , screw under that). cant remember if the grab handle is also screwed from the hanle side, think it has 2 small covers top and bottom with screws under. start at one corner and gently ease the card away from the door. Might need a paint scraper or summet similar to insert. Pull the card away nice and gently.
Be prepared for the snapping sound of the plastic clips .
Buy new clips :lol:
Simples :ok
Just checked and hanle comes off by removing small covers top and bottom of handle then undo screws. :ok
