I have removed both door cards for my door light mod.

Pop off the outside or the grab handle.
There's a T28 torx behind it and another below the grab handle.
Turn the plastic hex head at the bottom of the door card 90deg.
Then use trim tools to pop off the clips. Buy a few spare clips. I broke 2 each side but thankfully I had spares.
Note which plugs go where as vw use 2 identical plugs right beside each other. They are black 2 pin ones at the top if the door card.
I didn't remove the door trigger cable. Looked very fiddly to do so I just worked around it.
