I'm trying to remove the rear interior trim on my Barracuda to prep and paint but I really don't want to risk breaking anything since I know how expensive this stuff gets.

How do you remove the stainless trim that goes around the rear side cargo panels? I saw one screw in the very back that I removed and I assumed it was probably held in with clips but I didn't want to risk damaging it since it's in good condition.

Also the side lights that go through the real metal panels behind the rear side windows. How do those come out? I tried turning the chrome bezels on them counter clockwise but they aren't budging at all.
 
The stainless L trim there is one screw by the cargo hatch and the rest clip in, pry off slowly start from one side. Once removed all the screws to remove the rest become visible. Yes the c-pillar light bezels twist out. Behind it is a plastic clip that retains the actual light this clip breaks real easy so be careful when separating from the c-pillars.
 
Thanks a lot Rocky. I'll find my old plastic pry tools and get to work this weekend!
