Default Remove Interior Pieces

Hey guys,

Does anyone know how to remove these interior pieces? (the 2 left and right plastic window switches and the passenger boulster plastic insert)

I have attached pictures of what I'm talking about - do they just 'snap' off (clipped in), or does it require centre console removal or door card removal?

Thanks!

I recently did those to replace the soft touch parts with the later hard coat ones.

The grab handle is the simplest - it just pulls off. It is held in with sprung plastic hooks and comes off sideways. Be careful not to damage the little wires for the LED strip above it.

The window switches are a bit harder. You need to remove the interior door panel, then there are a bunch of torx screws on the reverse of the panel to remove. I remember a handful being quite deep to get to so you'll need a long shafted driver/key.

Sideways towards the passenger or sideways towards the shifter console?

Towards the centre/shifter. If you look carefully at the outside edges you will see they are shaped to fit and can only come out one way,

Thank you for this! I was looking to replace mine eventually as mine came in scuffed up a bit when I bought the car. Glad it is a simple pop off.
