Just take the door panel off and go from there. Or suction cup puller. Depends on dent. Pics? Don't poke it, you'll end up making it worse.

I had 2 passenger side small door dents. I bought one of those cheapo suction cup pullers from eBay. It worked on one of the dents but not on the other. Depends on the type of dent, if it's a crease type dent it will not work. For the price though it might be worth a try.
This is the small one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Mini-Gla...item339f753653 From China, so expect about 3-4 weeks delivery. Also available from Harbor Freight: http://www.harborfreight.com/catalog...?q=suction+cup |

I had two small dents and tried to do it myself with suction cups. Ended up doing more harm to the paint. I just called a professional and they drove to me and fixed it on the spot in 10 minutes! It was cool to watch and he got the dents right out! He charged me only 20$ due to me knowing him through family. I've heard it could be around 100$ for a small dent but it's worth it in my opinion.
A week later I got my car keyed which is a whole different story. People really get jealous over these cars:/ |

i rolled a dent out of my fender one time, using a baseball from the inside out. the door skins are super thin, it shouldn't take too much work. make sure the paint is warm, if possible. it'll minimize the chance of cracking.
don't poke the dent, roll over it with a spherical object. hey... or maybe post a pic so we don't give you bad advice? |

There are two dents,
2 small one on top of each other as if something fell, like a bike or something. How shall I fix this? The size are roughly 1 inch each. I don't want a professional to work on my car and I end up paying 500$... ![]()

--- Okay steps going to take. 1. Heat it with a blow dryer (hair dryer) 2. Use a suction cup 3. If does not work, poke it from the inside, I will slide something down the windows.
