Taking the drivers door for example
Step 1 - Remove the screw inside the door handle but popping out the plastic cover, then unscrewing.
Step 2 - using your left hand, pry the end of the plastic trim closest to the door hinge up (you should see the handle part start to budge out slightly)
Step 3 - at the same time, use your right hand to open the door handle, then continue opening it as if you were going to overextend the door handle
Voila, the whole piece with a bit of force will pop out.
*Note the attachments on the back of the door trim and angled as such that you effectively need to slide it towards the door opening which is why opening the door handle works as it pulls it that direction. Some were easier than others, but all needed some degree of force.
Good luck.
FYI, I have also removed the following pieces:
plastic below the GPS
Plastic surrounding the cigarette lighters/traction control centre
Both plastic surrounds for the steering wheel buttons.
so call out if you need help doing this. I will post some pics after they have been sprayed (today).
how easy is it to get in behind the door card to the lock mechanisms etc? not wishing to wreck the door by removing things/forcing things!
this takes a bit off, do I need to remove everything to get to the door lock or just this bit?
