Have removed all the screws I can find. Do I just need to start prying it off or am I missing something. I need to be able to get to my outside handle to install a new one. Any help greatly appreciated. All the write ups I've found are for an 07-10 : /

 

You have to have the door 90 degrees opened. Then it will lift off.

 

Just realized you are trying to get the inner skin off the door...sorry

 

Lol all good but yes the inner door panel...taking the doors off is what got me to where I am now...the door fell and landed on the handle!

 

Maybe this will help?

I know its for an older JK, but I would guess the general door is still close.

 

Ok so I got the outer panel off but now on the inner panel there are 2 screws in the middle of the door that are backwards. I mean I'm literally looking at the bottom of the threads. The head is between the metal shell of the door and the inner panel. It's retarded. Has anyone come up with a solution that has a 2011 or 2012?

 

You have to pull the window out undo the latch bolts and all the 10mm bolts around the edge of the inner panel. Then u have to jiggle the whole assembly out of the way so you can access the handle. Its a real pain to get back together too. I just had mine apart for paint.
