Liking the lowered look on the rear.
To disable it you would need to drop the power supply to the control box behind the rear near side panel, not so easy in a Cali !
You may be able to pull a fuse to do the same but the door would need to be in closed/locked position before powering down, I think the power latching is the only thing on that fuse but would need to check and it would kill it on slide door too
