Default Passenger door EVO-R CF panel install

I bought EVO-R's driver/passenger door CF pieces. The driver side is simple, just remove tape backing and press hard. However, the passenger side is a little more tricky with the handle in the way. I thought I saw a thread recently on how to take this apart, but I can't seem to find it. Anyone have a link or thoughts on how to install? Thanks!

Just pop off the silver trim piece in the middle of the door handle, then there are two bolts, I think they were 10mm, at the top and bottom of the handle to remove. Slide the handle away from the door and voila, its off.

I bought the same pieces, and found them very easy to install if you take the arm rest panel completely off so you can get the fitment just right before peeling off the backing from the 3m tape.

Ok so something thin like a flatheat or a butterknife should be able to pop it off?

I'll post some pics once I get it on.

^ yes, just wrap the flathead in a little rag so it won't scratch, and start from the bottom of the handle. it will pop off very easy .
