Anyone remove the side pockets of the driver and/or passenger doors. Looks like it just pops out, but doesn't want too. I removed the speaker cover, then tried to pop out the pocket. It comes out partially but not all the way. Any help would be great.

Nate - consulted the repair manual - here's what i found out:
Front door - the side pockets are part of the door skin. The door skin is held to the door frame by 8 clips. Start at the bottom and then work your way up both sides. Release the lock knob. Disconnect any power switches Mirror, window, etc. Remove the skin by pulling upwards.
Rear door - Again the pockets are integral to the skin. The rear skin is more difficult to remove and involves the rremoval of the opener, the speaker grill, the speaker, a screw that is on the rear underside of the arm rest, the lower anchor door cap. Pull the weather strip that is on the back edge of the door away far enough so you can remove the skin. The skin is again held on by 8 clips and remove it the same as the front. good luck!!
Thanks for your help. I took the skin off to find that the pocket is held on by 6 screws and a whack of pop rivets. This sucks. I was hoping to just unscrew the pocket. Now I have to drill out the rivets if I want to take off the pocket.
