PLEASE Help! Trouble with interior...

I'm redoing a lot of my interior this weekend, from black on blue to blue on white with carbon fiber inserts here and there, cause I'm getting new white seats. Anyway, you know the panels that our window switches and door lock switches are on?? How in the world do you get those off????? I don't want to keep prying for fear of breaking them. If anyone on here knows, please post. I know there is at LEAST one person out there that knows and can help me so please POST QUICK!!!!!! Thanks for your help (as always).....

hey there are 2 clips on the front and the back of them that hold on for dear life under that little arm rest... i just stuck a flat head screw driver under the front of it and yanked it up, pushing from the front of it make sure you have the 3 screws out that are near the door handle b/c one holds that piece to the door.

Yeah, I've checked out your page and seen your interior. I'm kinda doin the same thing. You see, I had done it up custom once before, but it was black on blue and now I want to change everything that is blace to make it white (kinda tricky, dark to light) but I still can't get those damn panels off my door. I'm not painting those, I'm covering them in CF, but I need to get them off to do it right and I can't find the screws you were talking about. If you read this tonight, post back and help me out, bro. Thanks!
BTW: what do you need? You said "i just wish some one would save me..." but I don't see what you mean.
Peace

No, but painted parts, custom leather seats (on the way), and carbon fiber parts DOES. I need help on getting these things off, not criticism, ok? If you don't know how to help me don't waste the post.

Ok, Geoff.... Calm down! Any and ALL criticism should be taken at it's face value. The way I look at it, opinions are like buttholes.... Everyone has 'em, and some STINK!

Chris gave U some good advice, though. (oh, and Chris, nice lookin' car dude!!)

But hey, if/when you get your seats and stuff all together, post some more pics for all to see. You two are giving me a LOT of ideas for the springtime!! WhooHoo!!!

You're right. I just wanted some help from Chris or anyone else that could. I saw in my e:mail someone had replied to the post and I guess I got a little ****ed to get on the forum to find that someone was not being helpful but instead... well, anyway, I'm glad I'm giving you some ideas and I'll post pics as soon as it's done and I can borrow a d/c. My seats will be here some time after the 1st of the year and I'll be putting them in a.s.a.p. but I will have the rest of the interior pretty much done by the end of the week.
Also, if you know how to get these things off my door it would really help speed this along...
Thanks!!

under the door-opened there's a piece of plastic that comes out to reveal screw #1. there's also a screw up at the top of the handle thing. you have to get to that by pulling out the cover first. then when you remove the handle there is a 3rd screw under there. i'm pretty sure that's it, i've pretty much taken every part of the interior out before for one reason or another. so if you need any more help with anything...
