Hi Jay:

The door panel wood trim removal should be simple enough.  Caution on 
backing off the 7mm nuts that hold the studs glued into the back of the 
veneer to not over tighten when re-installing.  The center console areas 
and glove box door too.   This leaves the dash and glove box if so 
equipped. This link, (my old website) has the notes and fuzzy pics of 
just how the dash comes apart.  I will add a caution on the glove box 
door. When dropping the latch out of the door frame be sure to observe 
placement of latch and spring affair.  This will save you time on 
re-assembly.
