Wow 4K door. If you still have the stroage "bin" on the front/bottom of the
door, where it looks like beer bottles would go, there are # 1-2 philips head
screws going through that outer edge into the door panel and frame. Remove
those. 5 -6?
Something by the door latch?
Door arm pulls two larger philips heads # 3?
and the top of the door panel lifts off and up over the door lock button IF
you unscrew the lock button FIRST.
Its been awhile so there may be one item I forgot.
