how do you keep from rippin up interior clips when accessing taillights from trunk?

man, every time I mess up the clips holding the lining of the trunk or whatever when I have to get inside, like to the rear taillights, how do you do it so they are reusable , and not torn to pieces?

To get to the taillight... all you have to do is unscrew that one plastic clip. Use a coin or a screwdriver.

yeah just unscrew them... to prevent scratching them use a slimmer screwdriver or a razorblade with a towel over it..
if yer having a hard time turnning them.. yer turnning the wrong way
