I started a writeup with photos but haven't finished. Roll the window down. Remove the two armrest hex bolts. Unlatch the cable release. At the bottom of the door, unclip the red/white light. Remove the 5-6 hex screws along the bottom & front of the door. Slide the entire inner leather door assembly up - you'll noticed it hangs on a few hooks. You can now unclip the wires to the window & mirror controls.

^^^^ Please note that there are several steps shown here that only apply to the DB9 and not the Vantage.
