Courtesy light bulb holder fell back with bulb

hey guys iam installing interior light set from rx8strakes, and iam done with passenger door, drivers door however, i was pushing bulb into the holder and the holder fell back in the door somewhere along with the bulb, how do i get them out? do i just open the whole door panel? i see a screw by the door handle and by the corner pocket.

you'll have to take the whole door panel off. there's three screws holding it on then you have to pull on it to release all the clips. Should be able to loosen it and reach up underneath to get the socket back in place without having to take the door off the lip at the top.

no problem. it's not that bad. first panel will take you 15 mins.. if you had to do it again it would take you 1.
