Can someone tell me how to remove the passenger side kick panel? I’ve taken everything out I can see.

Keep looking. There are bolts in strange and hidden places. Helps if you use a light and open/close the flap to make sure you're seeing everything. I did this a year ago or so and repainted the pieces with vinyl paint to match the rest of the interior, and I remember there were a couple bolts that I had to work to find. Seems like the right side was easier than the left

It is probably loose if you got them all. For me. It’s hard getting it UP and OUT of the hole for the vent flapper.
It seemed like SOMETHING was holding me up but it was just the way it drops in the open ring

Thanks. I’ll give it a shot. I was working on the swb first in case I f something up before going after the interior I want to use. Maybe I’ll learn from my mistakes.

Driver’s side is just a few screws and the e brake. I did this side first and thought the other side would be just as easy.:emotions122:
If you have factory ac there are several screws at the top you may not see. Did you remove cover over the vacuum pot? You can usually see them after.
