it is better to take off the door panel, becaude the tweeter pod is in the way and if you remove the panel then it will make for a better job and easier installation. door panel is easy to remove. just make sure they do a good job on the rear window! because if it has to be redone you will be in for a surprise ( defrost lines will be removed, even if a steamer is used) this applies to the IS models that i am aware of.

The shop that did my tint pulled the door panels. Just made it easier for them to deal with the tweeter pods sticking up. They did a great job, and you shouldn't be concerned about them pulling the door panels if they are a reputable shop. When i called my guy and told him the make and model, he already knew that the tweets stuck up and would be an issue. He had done IS's before....... Just a couple of screws hold the panels on anyway. Not a big deal at all.
