Removing interior 1/4 panel DIY?

I heard that removing the interior 1/4 panel area in the back seat is a PITA, but I dunno. I haven't done it before. Anyone ever pulled the side panel out before?

thats easy theres a little plastic cap covering where the defrosters are, pop that off, then grip the whole panel and pull towards you. All the clips will pop off and just take it out of the seat belt.

Dont forget the philips-head screw in the handle/armrest area. there is a plastic black cap that just pops off to get to it.

1st) pull rear pillar cover off,easiest way is to pop off retangle cap and pull from there and where the cover meets the headliner.2nd)remove lower seat cushion on both sides by lifting up on the front edge.3rd)remove back cushion,there will be a 10mm bolt on each side just above the seat belt bolts.then push seatbelts beside the back cushion.grasp the back seat cushion from underneith pull towards you a little and push up to release clips.4th)pop 2 clips that are now visible on the back deck cover.pull the front of the cover up a 3-4 of inches.5th)remove screw in the quater panel cover,then pull from underneith and start poping clips,then grab near window and pop the rest.pull forward to remove.follow these steps there will be no problems. If you try pulling the quarter cover with out lifting the back deck cover described in the 4th step,you WILL rip the back deck cover.when you disesemble you will see there a tab that goes up under the cover.good luck. I have put 2 layers of edead in my entire car.Check page 2 http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3152723
