I'm removing the rear door panel, and it doesn't want to come off. I followed the DIY, but it only shows steps for the front, so I followed the same steps. The rears have an extra screw towards the bottom that I removed and I don't see that there is a torx screw holding it on. Those appear to be the only 2 differences. But she doesn't want to budge.
The rears do have the sunshade, so does anyone know if there is another step that is required that I may be missing?
Trying to tackle this today, so appreciate any immediate feedback possible.
Thanks

Ok, looks like I need to according to this post by AlwynMike
"If you have blinds, the rear quarterlight one will have to be removed before you take the panel off - just lever off with a small screwdriver at the top - there is a small plunger holding it."
Well sounds easy enough but that bugger doesn't want to come off either. I'm not a veteran modder and this is all a bit scary. I'm afraid to pull too hard.
Any tips?
I know there are a bunch of people who have replaced their trim, so there's gotta be someone who can advise.
Please!
Thanks
