I think there's 6 per cover so it'll take a few minutes to get them off without breaking the posts.

Door trim is super easy. You spend more time taking the door panel off than you do covering the trim itself (which if you know what I'm talking about can be a while if you haven't mastered it). Follow the audiworld DIY on replacing the front speakers to remove the panel.

Once the panel is out, remove the plastic sound deadening material. You'll see 3 exposed rivet looking pieces with a retaining clip (2 at one end of the trim piece and 1 at the other end).

Push one side of the clip down and while pushing down, slide the clip back. These clips are nice because they don't just fall off, you kinda have to pull them off. The other 2 are covered by a glued down piece that you can pry up and get to. Super easy once you've gotten one side done.

I should have taken pics....I'm lazy. I think I described it as simply as I could.
