V8V door panel rattling

I can hear rattling from the passenger door all the time and assume it comes from speaker mesh area.

Can anyone explain to me how to remove the 2007 Vantage door panel with photos if possible?

I am not a handy person so please give me an idiot proof explanation.

Thank you very much in advance~!!

Here's the page from the Aston Martin publication "Squeaks and Rattles Repair Manual" - gotta love a build quality that has a repair manual called that

I added the referenced WS procedure in the original response above. However - there is a thread on here that has links to full copies:

Allow me to add 6.5 to this list. It should read

6.5. STOP!!! Before continuing to #7 make sure you pry the bottom of the door panel enough so you can reach in and disconnect the window switch plug. The wire harness is not long enough to allow the panel to be shifted up and will pull the switch with it breaking the mounting tab. Once the window switch and puddle light plugs are disconnected, continue in to #7. Ask me how I know……

The good thing is that the switch is a Volvo part and can be sourced by cheap on ebay.

Of my seven Vantages I've owned two of them had a bolt that came loose and rattled within the door panel.
