Default Driver side door panel removal 03

I have searched and searched for where the clips are located on the drivers side door panel. I had the passenger side removal booked but that computer crashed so its gone.
I need pics and any details to beware of.....my window is making noise on the down cycle, sounds like gears grinding or its pulling the plastic sheet off and eating it if there is a plastic sheet inside.

Here's a link that should help you. VE has lots of great instructions, this one is for installing new door handles but gives outstanding instructions and pics for door panel removal.
