How do you pull off the front door panel on a '97 Contour?

It should just pop off as far as i know.

2nd :

The front door has screws covered behind small caps. Use a small flat head screwdriver to remove them. This will expose the screws. The door has screws at the bottom and sides. Remove the srews (mark each screw as there are 3-4 different srews used on this door!!!)

Once all srews are removed, gently wiggle the door panel upwards.

Total time: 5-10 mins.
