Technical Removing rear interior panel

[Wheeless]

Hi all, I need to get this panel off to get at the seatbelts but I want to be able to replace it after (ie not break it)

Anyone give me a guide on how to do it?

I use a proper flat trim removal tool for such tasks should get one off eBay or local automotive shop

Use that slide under plastic and twist gently all around the edges should pop and then i normally tap them back in using a fist

I guess that tool just pushes the catches out on the plastic so it's not caught onto the metal?

So I just get my fingers under it and pull it out slowly? That's terrifying

Piece of cake really, just apply even pressure and you'll be fine

Gave it a yank and it all came off fine. It was much easier removing the second one when I knew it wouldn't shatter before my eyes! It was just held on by plugs, I thought it was clipped on.

Thanks all! Now to get the seatbelts out.

Took some pictures along the way and stuck a guide up on the forum incase anyone needs to know how
