Rear driver door removal

Does anyone have videos or instructions/pictures on how to remove the rear driver door and have it replace. Theres like 2 screws that need to be remove and a couple cables. Thats where i will get stuck. Any advice.

You have to remove the plastic B pillar cover (inside the car) the lower part, becareful as this tends to have clips that break. Once thats off you'll see the plastic connector for the rear door harness you disconnect it from there and push it through the hole until its outside.

Now you remove the 10mm that holds the door check and the door opens wider for you to remove the 2 big bolts top and
bottom, DO NOT remove the hinge from the car, the correct way is to remove the door from the hinge because removing the hinge will mess up the door alignment and you will be very upset trying to align a heavy door.
