2002 Passenger Door/Window Problems

Can someone give me simple instructions on removing the door panel.

My window won't roll up completely and it acts like it is out of alignment.
First symtom was a scratch on the window tint for a day or so. Then when I shut the door is sounded like a metal object fell inside the door panel. Window operated okay for 2-3 times and then failed to close all the way and makes a lot of noise when I put it all the way down.
I removed the screws from the bottom of the door panel and popped the internal plastic rivets out but can't get any farther than that. I believe the metal sound I heard was a small bolt that fell out when I pryed the interior panel out (also 18 cents fell out). Is there a secret to removing the interior panel completely. Thanks

Julie

I don't know about your car specifically, but normally there are a few thousand plastic fasteners of various types around the perimeter of the panel. Make sure you have all the screws out from handles, levers, etc.
