    Interior Panel Removal

    I'm curious to know how to remove the rear speaker covers and the rear interior panel behind the speakers.
    I gently pried an wiggles for 30 min on one and couldnt figure it out.

    Does it need to slide off?

    Thanks!!!

    My panels are missing, but i can see how it would connect. There are holes that look like little connectors snap into, i have encountered the same type around the back of the van on other panels. I try to get as close to the connector as possible and pry, but the panels in my car are a bit brittle and break usually, im guessing thats what happened to my speaker panels and thats why i didnt get them with the van. Not sure if there is a better way to get them off but it might help.

    If you can see them, they are the round and elongated holes through the dynamat. The elongated ones i think are the ones that snap out, then from the other pic you can see the connector i still have in one hole, i think that one slide connects with the panel
