can someone help me remove the door panel
i have a 92 prelude and im trying to take the door panel off. I have removed the door lock mechanism panel and the little wallet holder. In the wallet holder there is a screw that i need to remove that is in a very awkward place and i cant get to it unless i have a screwdriver that bends into a 90 degrees angle. and suggestions?

I'm not sure what you mean by "wallet holder", are you referring to the door handle? If you are, you shouldn't need to use a 90 degree screw driver, a regular one should be able to get at it straight up. Here's the steps I go by:
-Remove the door handle/power lock/window peice by unscrewing the single screw holding it in, then with the door handle swung open pop out the entire peice. It can be a bit feisty but it'll give, just becareful. Unplug everything and put it aside.
-Remove the "door handle" with the single screw in the middle mounted vertically. and just pull out the entire cup.
-Pop off the little plastic peice behind the side mirror, there are no screws. You could use a flat head to help you wedge into it, but it should come out pretty easily.
-Remove any screws along the side/ bottom edge of the door panel.
-Begin popping off the bottom/sides of the door panel, they're on there pretty good, but if you have taken off all the screws it shouldn't be too much trouble.
-After popping the bottom/sides off, lift the entire panel up to get it over the edge of the window gap.
.. I think that's it. Good luck.
