Default Door panel removal?

Can someone provide instructions to remove both both the front and rear door panels? I plan on three toning the fronts on my cyber green glx to match the green, gray, black of the rear panels. I also plan on finishing some interior tidbits in cyber green to complement my dash pieces!

Do you mean the inside front panel?

Take out the three torx screws along the bottom of the panel, gently pry off the door pull cover and remove the 2 screws. Pull out the bottom of the panel and disconnect the lower light, window switches (noting which wires go where) and the trunk/gas filler cover release wires. It might be a bit tough, but pull up (not out) on the whole panel to release the rubber weatherstrip from out of the top of the window opening. To completely remove, unhook the cable running from the inside handle to the door latch.

Don't know about the rear panel. Maybe just pry it off?
