Taking Dash Panels out??

Ok i need to take the panel on both doors where Lock and Unlock buttons are. The plastic part behind of the handle to open the door. The Black part around the stereo unit and the part that goes from the left side(where the lights control is) all the way up the cluster. Need some help dont want to brake anything. Thank you.

The black part around the stereo just pops out. It may take a little convincing the first time. Just make sure you line up the air vent ducts when you reinstall it. I just truned the A/C vents outward and grabbed the egdes of the vent opening and pulled it out.

The black peices around the door handles are the same I believe. There is a screw BEHIND this panel to remove the entinre door panel and there also is one behind the rear most panel on the door (small vertical one). I think the get the lock/unlock panels out, you have to take the whole door panel off. When they did my speaker install, they took the lock button out after removing the panel.

I don't know about the black part around the light control though.

The panel around the dash gauges is two steps. You first have to put the truck in gear, then pull off the panel that is under the gauges/above the steering wheel. Its a snap in. After that, there are two screws on the bottom left and bottom right of the top trim piece, then there are 4 screws (or three? forget) on the "underside" of the top above the gauges. There is a last screw BEHIND the light-fixture switch, so pull it out and unscrew that. After you take those screws out, you can just lift the piece off.

The panels that hold the Lock/Unlock and window button just pulls out. Grab it at the front (the pointed end) and pull out, then slip it forward to disengage the tab at the back end.

Are you getting the carbon fiber package from Rich?
