corolla door lock repair

[earthping7]

hi -
we've got a 95 corolla that had a loose exterior door handle.

We lived with it for a while, but one day I inserted my key to open the driver's side door and the lock pop in and dropped inside the door frame.

I'd like to remove the inside door panel to get at the lock to fix it, and "tighten" the door handle at the same time, but I don't see any screws holding the panel on...is it glued on or is it all clips?

The windows are manual, so it should be pretty easy.

All the manufactures are famous for hiding the screws (if any) that hold the panels on. After having a good long look and you don’t find any screws carefully slide something like a putty knife between the panel and doorframe. That’s to pop the clips that are likely holding the panel to the door. I don’t think I’ve ever seen one that was glued on but hey you never know what they may have been thinking when the designers put it together.
