Panels
To take off the door handle panel and the trim around the gauges that runs from the light switch the stereo. Can I just use a flat tip screwdriver and prop it off? Or is there some hidden screws or something? :?

The little insert panel in my front passenger door handle recess broke in our last freeze. It'* not as bad as that other plastic, but it can still get busted in the cold.

I have done it numerous times, I used about 3 different sized screw drivers and took my time to make sure the tabs didnt break. I started with a small one and moved my way up. You will be able to feel the locations where the tabs are holding it in, thats where you need to put the most pressure. May I ask what this is for? Maybe some of us can help out.

for the dash trim, once you get one or two tabs out with your prying device (i used a fork) you can pretty much use your fingers on the rest of them. just go slow and don't force anything.
