Any instructions for removing the driver side door paneling?

I need to replace the Driver side door lock actuator on my 2013 XJL 5.0. I found a Youtube video for replacing the actuator on an XF (

), but in the initial step, the paneling is removed in a way that does not seem to relate to the XJ, and I don't want to damage the wood paneling or the leather.
Does anyone have instructions for doing this?

Thanks!

I would get the service manual for your XJ? It will pay for itself many times over.

X2... I need to grab one as well

But the panels are super easy to remove. Its like 3 bolts and all push tabs. Just install new accent lights in all 4 doors.
