Some guys that removed the door panel didnt know about the third screw.
Here some answer when I posted the pictures in the other forum:

"I never have to remove the "third" screw where the courtesy light is. I don't even think I have one there. I only have the one behind the door handle latch, and the one inside the handle pocket where the power window switches are.
Then, I just "pop" the panel out because all that's hold it are clips."

"Me too...when I did my speakers and crossover, only two screws per door....... "

And finally one answer:
the third screw does exist on the US models.
the only reason nobody notices it is because:

1. It is behind the courtesy light glass/plastic
2. it is screwing into a plastic plug which is in the door panel. When u pull the panels off, the plug is pulled along with the panel, w/o any screams of "rape"
