How to Remove the Rear Door Panels on a 2002 Audi A4
1. Remove the door top trim, which will be wood or plastic. Pull the front edge of the trim away from the door gently until you hear the snaps release. Continue pulling the front edge outward until all the snaps release. Pull the trim forward (towards the front of the car) to release the rear fastener.
2. Remove the screws underneath the trim with a Phillips screwdriver. Remove the screws that are concealed in the door handle. Remove the screw from the bottom center of the panel.
3. Starting at the lower, rear edge of the door panel, slide a plastic scraper between the door panel and the door. Pry the door panel away from the door until the snaps release, working your way around the perimeter of the door. You may need to pull hard to get the clips to release.
4. Pull the door panel up vertically to release it from the door once the panel clips are disconnected from the door.
5. Reach behind the door panel and disconnect the cable that goes to the door handle. Disconnect all of the wires that go to the door for the lights, power windows, etc. Installation is the reverse of removal. If you break any clips during removal, you can source them from your Audi dealer.

How to Remove the Front Bumper of an Audi TT
1. Park the Audi TT on a level surface and set the parking brake. Place a wood block behind the rear tire to prevent the vehicle from rolling.
2. Lift up the front end of the vehicle with a floor jack and place two jack stands, one next to each front tire under the front axle. Lower the vehicle so it is resting on the jack stands.
3. Disconnect the cover on the top of the water bottle near the front of the engine compartment by hand. Detach the battery cover on the drivers side of the engine compartment near the front, removing the plastic pegs with a flat-head screwdriver.
4. Take the plastic cover off the front of the vehicle by hand and locate the six Torx bolts on the front bumper. Disconnect the Torx bolts with a Torx bit and socket wrench.
5. Unfasten the two screws underneath the front bumper with a Phillips screwdriver. Detach the two bolts---one on each side---in front of the tires in the wheel wells with a socket wrench.
6. Pull the bumper down carefully and locate the Torx screws inside the ends of the bumper. Remove the Torx screws with a Torx screwdriver and lift the front bumper off the Audi TT, setting it aside.
