Does anyone know if there is a hidden fixing behind the trim panel on the right rear door card on a 2008 L322?
I've watched all the videos I can find on the subject and none quite match the trim spec I'm looking.

I've so far removed 3 screws and released the poppers from the bottom and sides, but it seems to be holding on somewhere in the centre of the card.
Trying to remove the black trim piece to see if there is a hidden screw is proving difficult and I don't want to snap it; so before applying too much pressure I wanted to check if I even need to remove it first!

Any pointers would be very helpful!

Should there not be four screws?

Just checked. 2 in the bin thing, front and back, one in the door handle itself and one under the little Land Rover badge towards the back of the door. Then just un-pop it and wrestle the top away from the lock pin.

Thanks both - it was 3 screws and a pretty aggressive pull to get it to come off, far more force than I had ever thought would be necessary; but its done!
