The window crank should have a little metal clip. You need to get a pick and remove it for the handle to come off. Just pull on the handke a little too see the metal clip.

the above is true. Also, this sounds dumb, but people forget it. Look for the screw inside the little plastic pocket/interior handle thing. After that stuff, the door panel pulls off with a little bit of tender love and prying.

What I found really handy was using a coat hanger, metal preferably so it doesnt bend. Then make a little hook on the end, and then use that to pop the clip. Also there is actually a tool designed to do this.
