Door panel removal on a 97 SL500

This is a 97/98 SL500 and I need to remove the DS door panel. I have removed the panels on lottsa 91/92/93's and it's pretty easy, but this 97 has a completely different door panel.
Does anyone know if there are any instruction on removing this model panel?
I can't find anything. All the instruction and videos are for the earlier door.
I've attached a picture.
Thanks

Plutoe do you have a wiring diagram for the DS window motor. I need to test it and thought it would be just 2 wires....but there are several. I need to know which 2 to supply 12V to to test the motor. Thanks
UPDATE.....checked the motor...it's fine.
Code some undefined codes with the code reader. Are you able to find a definition?
Described Code 134 ----convenience micro switch L S86 R S87sl trunk S88sl
" " 101 front power window motor hall effect sensor not synchronized
" " 99 Left front power window motor hall effect sensor
Code shown with no description: 123 / 103
Any idea what they are.
Looks to me to be a problem with the roof control module.
