I'm trying to remove the door panel to put in the Dali thingies. I have all of the screws out but when I push on up on the door panel it doesn't want to come up and I don't want to force anything. Any suggestions?

Ah, yes, please read this!
The trick I found is that the small chrome strip, near the window, is *not* (I repeat NOT) supposed to come out with the panel, although it looks like it should.
It is just a pull up and the out motion, mainly up until it pops, but don't pull on the chrome strip. Pushing from the bottom helps me do it.
Hope this helps, the first time I took off the doors I did this, and the second time I had to learn it all over again (plus, the 2nd time, I broke one of the black clips).
Good luck!

Thanks a lot. I have a factory manual + I have read all I could and this wasn't mentioned. Thanks again!
Start the panel by moving it off the ends of the door; where the garnish(s) fit over the panel. Once it starts here it pops right out.
Craig, how did it work out? FYI, after this last time, I took a blue pen and marked in the manual that the chrome strip was not part of the door; hopefully, next time, I won't fall for that again...
