here goes nothing:
- Open door (duuuh)

- remove all screws holding door panel, you will find some in the inner door jam, more behind thoses plastic buttons towards the bottom of the panel, and another screw behind the cougar head emblem.
- take panel, pull up then out (not all the way)
- from behind the panel disconnect the door latch wire (works like a brake cable on pedal bike) and all the electrical brackets, you don't really need to worry about which goes where, cause they are color coded and only go in one way
- put panel on bench
--------------this is where my memory gets a little sketchy----------
- from the back side of the panel you should see a nut/washer type thingy holding down the panel arm, undo it and this will give you plenty of slack to work with so you can paint behind the panel.
- remove the door opener handle, should be obvious
-------------done sketchy part---------------------
- take a good hour and tape it off carefully, take your time here and tape off EVERYTHING on the door panel that you don't want painted (overspray is bad)
- scuff all areas before painting, use plastic prep
- paint
then do everything backwards to put back in
