Default Rear door removal?
I have an 08 a6. Long story short in replacing my lights in my door the wiring is too short and I need to get behind the panel to plug the light back in. I removed the screw on the bottom as well as the screw under the armrest. But the door refuses to budge. What am I missing? Something with the pull? Any advise would be great. Thanks!

Three more screws need to be removed. Two behind the wood trim and one behind the the top speaker cover. Be careful removing the wood trim. Very easy to brake the clip tabs, start at the front end and gently pull out , walking your way to the back end.

That sounds like the front door panel. How about the rear? Thanks!
