I HOPE that when i get the replacement from ebay I can 'eyeball' the part and see how it attaches and what to remove, if I get the part before i get a response i will let you know .

EDIT: nice a fellow 2004 LS owner .

id advise to buy a full set of clip/retainers aswell. with some careful and delicate prying you could manage to save some , but unfortunatly most of the clips on the bottom will break. pretty much one time use clips

along the top there will be a series of christmas tree clips (like the ones that hold on interior door panels), use a trim removal tool to pry until they pop.. be careful and ont pry up into your 1/4 panel and dent it tho. and on the bottom are some differnt type, that will clip on the vehicle foirst then snap in between to plastic parts ( theses are the ones that break)

similar to the lower clips: http://www.toolrage.com/ProdImages/WEF-3044.jpg
