A motor vehicle door with an outer skin panel includes a frame (3) with peripheral edges having associated connection means for the respective edges (13a, 13b, 13c, 13d) of the skin panel (13). At least one edge (13a) of the skin panel (13) has a formation (14, 15) for hooking to the relevant edge of the frame (3), this hook formation being engageable by engagement means (18) associated with the relevant edge of the frame (3). The engagement means (18) enable the hook formation (14, 15) of the skin panel (13) to be force-fitted onto the appropriate edge of the frame (3).
