Abstract

Door (1) for a vehicle, in the interior face of which there is a lateral opening (4) comprising a door module (5) fitted with equipment including a lock (30) and a window lifter (6) with at least one rail (7, 8) for guiding cables (9, 11), this module comprising an interior trim panel (20) on which the said equipment items are mounted, characterized in that in the upper part of the panel (20) there is an opening (31), against the periphery of which there may be removably fitted an additional insert (32) which forms a constituent part of the said panel and to which a support (24) for the lock (30) is fixed. This arrangement allows the lock (30) to be removed, if necessary, from the door (1) after the module (5) has been assembled therewith, without having first of all to remove the entire trim panel (20); this extraction of the lock (30) can be achieved simply by removing the insert (32) to which it is secured. This opening gives access to the motor, window lifter and electronics so that one of these can be replaced if necessary.
