well your also unclear about what it is that is causing the dilemna but here goes my understanding of your problem...


The center trim piece is easy, first like the DIY says, locate the trim panel with the 12V socket. Take a flat head screw driver with a rag over the tip (so you don't mar the trim piece) and pop her off. You'll find (2) 8mm bolts in there. unscrew them, and then very carefully pry out the center console with your fingers. 'Nuff said.

Door handle...
hrm...

<< and i can't get the door trim pieces out, i took out the 2 screws and thats as far as i got... >>

Now after the 2 screws are taken out, carefully pry the trim piece off. badda boom badda bing!
