    Does the piece surrounding the interior front door handles just pop off after you take the screw out behind the handle?

    I am painting that small panel piece and cannot get it off.

    Anyone got any advice?

    When you pop off the window controls be sure to start at the front. I broke the tab on mine and now super double sided tape holds it on.

    She did something? I didn't notice anything except the white shirt. Was she selling shirts?
