Help, window button panel fell into door

I was driving to work today and went to roll down the window and the drivers side window/door lock panel buttons fell into the door panel. It looks like the screw that was holding it into place has come undone. The buttons still work and was able to get the window up but are inside the door panel some what.

To screw this back in, I guess I need to remove the door panel cover. Is there a way to do this myself? Has this happen to anyone before? I have a 2003 g35 sedan.

I know its for a coupe, but it should be similar for a sedan:

Got it off, the door panel piece that has the 4 windows and door lock is cracked where the screws screw in and needs to be replaced. Do you know where I can order this piece online?

Ok, I may have to check with them next week. I got the screws back it in and it seems to be holding as long as no one pushes the door unlock button with a lot of force.

Yes that is the part. It says black. I would need a tan/khaki color.
