Christ, is there anyway I can find out how to safely remove a door panel without paying $5? I looked at it the other day and when I tried to remove it I couldn't figure it out and didn't want to break it because it's my sisters car, not mine. Anyone have experience with these cars?

Just check for screws first. Then just start prying it up around the edges with a flat blade screwdriver or something. It more than likely has plastic clips that hold the panel on. Never done that car, but that's just what I would try. Also call a local GM dealer and ask. I had to do that once when doing a friends Neon. Good luck though.

I checked for all the screws, but there's also a tricky thing you might have to do with the seatbelt, and the door handle, so...

Chevy has tricky panels.

Double, triple check for hidden screws behind the door handles. GM likes to use "up/pull" clips also.
