Default Remove door panels 5th gen 1999

Ok I hope I am in the right section here...

I want to remove the door panels on my 1999 to lube the windows, try to fix my power lock and also get the windows tinted. Now I did this once before on my 1998 Lumina LTZ but it seems to have been different. I found most of the screws but I read you have to remove the woodgrain trim to remove a screw behind there. How do you remove this trim without breaking it? My door panels are in excellent condition so I dont wanna screw them up.

Thanks

I just looked at my car, and its held with 4-5 clips. Just start tugging on it from the front side (where the switches are),slide your finger behind it, and start prying it off. You will then see 2 bolts underneath. One is a Torxs head and the other looks like a 10MM. hope this helps.
