    So I have a rattle in the right rear armrest when someone has there arm resting on it and I want to take it apart and see if I can resolve it. Can someone tell me if the rear door panel removes the same way as the front by just popping it off or if I can just remove the control panel without removing the entire panel and if so how do I remove just the control panel. I have removed the front door panels before but not a control panel. Trying to avoid damaging anything or breaking any clips. Thanks

    You can remove the controls without taking the panel off. I just grip that panel and pull with my hands
