    Long time lurker, first time post. Did a due diligence search which turned up some related info but but didn't come up with exactly what I'm looking for. Need to remove the back wall trim panel from my '96 standard cab - looking for any tips, photos, videos, etc... Doesn't look too hard, I'm sure I'll figure it out but it couldn't hurt to have any available guidance. Thanks.

    So I got this done and it was easier than I expected. For anyone looking for guidance in the future, after removing the hardware for the spare tire changing gear and the plastic fasteners across the middle, I pulled back the carpet at the bottom of the rear panel and then just started working the panel out by hand around the perimeter from the bottom, up the sides and across the top. Installation was the reverse, starting at the top and working my way down the sides to the bottom. The panel is covered only about a half inch all-around by the trim panels, so with a little bit of effort it can be removed and tucked back into place without removing any of the trim.
