Hi,
I'm new to this board, and i was wondering if anyone could help me out and explain how to remove the door panels on a 94 Accord coupe. Thanks,
Tyler

yo, welcome to the board.

are you trying to replace your speakers? if so, some people on here just used a philips head bit, and a open ended, or ratcheting wrench.

but to take the panel off, i found it best to work with the windows down. start by taking off the black plastic piece that covers the inside of the mirror. there are plastic clips all along the front and bottom of the panel. there is one screw behind the inside door handle, there is one under the arm rest, and i think there is one under the lock/window controls. once you get all of the clips and screws out, you can just lift it up until the weather stripping comes out over the window slot, and do what you need to do. i was able to work behind there without disconnecting the rod that opens the door.
also, your power locks will not work with the door panel off, even though the switch is hooked up. good luck
