Default UGH! Trouble removing rear passenger door panel to replace lock actuator!

Help! I have been fighting with this damn door panel for a couple days now and am about to rip it off lol. My door is stuck shut because it won't unlock. Will this stupid door panel even come off with the door stuck closed??

I have removed the 2 bottom screws, the one behind the door panel light, and the one underneath the window switch under the ash tray. Am I missing a bolt somewhere??

I have searched numerous times and not really finding anything useful... please let me know if you can help.

Thanks!!

I believe there is a screw behind the door handle and once you remove the Window switch assembly there is a bolt in there. Once you get the bolts and screws out its still going to be a fight the get the panel of while the door is still shut. Good luck!!
