Question Front Door removal DIY?

Is there an existing DIY for removing the entire front driver side door (lock, stock and barrel)?

I have to do a small repair and cannot without the door removed.

If you want to remove the entire door try this.

First, remove the inner plastic kick panel. Trace the wires coming into the footwell from the door. There are only a few. Disconnect the wiring connections. Feed them out through the body so the they are now loose. There are two c-clips on the top of both door hinges. Remove those clips. The door check also has a rolled pin attaching the check to the door and body. Remove the check. Use a small pry bar ir flat head screwdriver to force the door up and off the hinges. Warning! The door weighs a ton. Have someone there to help you hold it as you release it from the hinges. This job shouldn't take more than 30 minutes.
