Rear door latch

My rear passenger side door latch is playing up, sometimes wont unlock, works when I press the fob 3 times. Is the door panel easy to get off? I have seen a few threads on here about the latch but cant find any detailed instructions on how to take the panel off to get to the latch? Black MY2013 SD4 GS Auto, Wood Company Armrest, Freel2 sticker.

Right, I've looked at a few posts on here about door latches. If I want to remove and replace the rear door latch, do I have to take out the window motor? Also, is there a plastic sheet I need to remove once I've removed the door card? Black MY2013 SD4 GS Auto, Wood Company Armrest, Freel2 sticker.

Don't know about the window motor but once you remove the door card it will be fairly obvious.
With respect to the plastic sheet, there will be one, they're quite hard to remove and replace. What I've done in the past is carefully cut where I need to access and then reseal with duck tape or similar to retain the waterproof barrier.

Another thread that might help:

...YES you have to remove the window motor which is quite easy and NO there is no plastic sheet you need to cut - the door is a metal "box" which you open by removing the window motor
