Help with removing panel clips
Can someone please tell me a good way to remove those blue and orange clips that hold the interior panels to the body from the body. Sometimes if i have to pull some panels off one clip or 2 will be stuck in the metal and i cant for the life of me get them out to put them back onto the back of the panels. I know this might not be very clear so if anyone doesnt understand what the hell im gettin at please let me know and ill try to clarify. Thank you

It's called a panel remover, or Door/body panel remover. You can get one cheap at any auto parts store. Autozone in particular carries this (OEM) brand tool.
EDIT: I HIGHLY recommend you buy this tool. I bought one (Snap-On, shouldnt have got it from them, lol) off the truck when i worked at a Nissan dealership back in college. This thing has saved me more time than you could ever imagine. One of the best specialty tools you'll ever buy.
