For the doors you have to remove the panels first. Then find the thread in the DIY
about removing the radio to find out how to do the rest.

They are held on by clips. I would use a small flat head screwdriver with tape on the end to prevent scratching. Some of the trim also has large gaps, like the ones closest to the steering wheel, I bent a coat hanger and used it to hook the trim from the inner edge and pull it off if I remember correctly.
