Default Rear Trim Side Panel Removal

I need to get access to the aux HVAC unit on the LHS of the cargo area to replace the liquid line. Last piece of the puzzle is removing the side wall trim panel. Does anyone know how to remove this? I can't find anything worth while searching online.

I just took it off last week, there's a lil screw hidden in like the cargo cover latch area.. and then I took off the strip of carpet that has the anchors on it and went around with a trim removal tool to pop all the clips out.. think that was all there was to that.

Thank you. I'll see what I can do. Need to pick up a trim removal kit one of these days :-)

OK...How do you get the cap off to the screw in the cargo cover area? I've tried many tools and it doesn't want to come off. Ended up gauging it and it still didn't want to come out.
