im having trouble with my passenger not locking and unlocking.
can anyone tell me how to remove the door panels en possibly fix this big problem?

Try http://shrubbery.student.utwente.nl/
This is Johan and Seans E32 site and has a lot of text and picures for 7 series fixes. The door lock solenoid support bracket/s are prone to crack and this site has a fix,. I had to have miysupport bracket welded and as they are made of pot metal it was not easy as the bracket would rather melt than weld together.

thanks so much that is a very very helpful site. i appreciate it much.
