How Do I remove the rear interior Trim panel?

So I have a 1992 SVX LS-L

It has lots of dents so it needs some PDR (paint-less dent repair) work. We have the door panels taken out but not the rear interior trim panel. I don't want to just start ripping stuff out so how do I go about this? I have searched through this site and the other one but found nothing.

thanks in advance,
W89

Which panel exactly? The ones to the sides of the rear seats you first unscrew and remove the clip thingy underneath the seat bottom, and another to the side of the seat back, then the rest is held on by clips. Be careful not to break any clips. You're less like to break them if you warm it up first.

Yeah, you have to remove the rear seat first. The clips IIRC are removable if you break one, as long as you don't break the holder off of the panel itself, and they are like a dollar something each from the Subaru dealer. A trim clip removal tool helps though...

that link should help. i was able to get my panels off. it's all (minus a couple screws) snap on stuff, and it's all straight forward as to pulling it off. there's nothing super hard.
