Internal Trim Panels

Hello all,

I have a replacement OSR seatbelt which I need to fit. Can anyone tell me the best method for removing the internal rear quarter trim panel without breaking/damaging the trim connectors? I have taken a quick look and the panel appears to be fitted very tightly, I'm reluctant to try forcing it without first obtaining some input from the experts. Any advice will be gratefully received.

Recently lashed out £2.79 for a set of panel removal tools. Seem OK but haven't tried them yet. At this price you can't go wrong!

Thats what that bloke uses on Wheeler Dealers, plastic tools sort of like youd use for flipping your omelette type of thing, they seem to work really easily and dont cause distortion and damage to the panel youre removing, which is the main thing, however the plastic clips can sometimes be a little brittle and snap, might be handy having a few spare just in case to replace any that do break??
