Need advice on removing interior panels
 
Has anyone removed any interior panels on their Z yet? I have a dent on the rear fender and in order for the dent removal guy to work it out, the interior panels on that side have to come off. I would like to know how they unclip before I start. I will have a talk with a tech at nissan as well, they should have an idea of what clips are used and how they come off.

they probably just pull right off with a little force sounds crazy but i remember at my old car shop where i interned we just yanked S*@T off haha and it never broke

I would like to know how to take the plastic in the trunk area too. I pulled hard enough on the plastic to create bend marks but it didn't come off.

Download the service manual in the Manuals area here: Nissan 370Z Owners Manual / Service Manuals - Nissan 370Z Forum

Yep downloaded the service manual and know where the clips are but can't get them to unlock. I've been working out for years so it's not a strength issue.

I had the whole trunk area plastics out for my install. Remove the window seal then the rear most plastic first. There are some fasteners to remove then just give a good yank from the closest clip to the farthest. I used a plastic repanel tool first, But on the next panel I just pulled it right out. Check out slikniks audio install thread for pics.
