Does anyone know how to remove the inner door panel? I have all of the bolts out and it feels loose all except 2 places but there are no more bolts to remove. I pryed a bit with my trim tools but still no go. Any ideas?

These will give some more detail. Please let me know if you have any luck.

I just gave up out of frustration atleast until it warms up and we'll see if all the clips are easier pull. I went and bought a yellow nylon set of trim removal tools but they still weren't strong enough to get any of the lower section clips loose but I was able to get 3 of the upper clips loose. I started on the rear door.

Got it removed. Attached are some pics including the spot that I was able to get it started from. I pried on that fastener while pulling on the door compartment with my other hand, I used my knee against the metal door corner to keep the door in place.

Once that one let go all the lower ones let loose too, some slight prying and pulling for the top ones and it came free. I will say that door panel probably weighs like 10lbs which was unexpected.

Last pic is all tools I used to get the panel off.

Hope it helps!
