I need to get the front door panels off so that I could get my new mirrors on.
I got them loose but they seem to be stuck on the door handle. I got all the screws out that I know of. Are there any hidden ones?

ive done this so manytimes, take out the bolt from under the door handle(the one you pull door shut with), and the cover behind the door opener(door open handle), start at bottom like said, it will seem really hard to get off but dont worry thats how its suppoes to feel, o when it dose pop, it will be loud and sudden dont think you broke it lol, then life it up and then out

you guys are forgetting that he has a 96, old door panels that you have to remove the lock plate and flex it around.(plate that has door handle and lock switch.) and pop up the front edge of the switch panel and unplug everything.

Figured out how to get them off.
Now all I need is a new mirror switch.
