Default Removing DASH TRIM... How?

Hey guys, so i want to professionaly paint my A4s interior dash and door trims GLOSSY RED!
Does any one know (from experience) if the trim pops right off? Do I need any tools or just
pull them off with my hand?

THANKS!

I don't have experience, but sence your not geting any help I thought i would say something.

I haven't done it, but im pretty sure all you have to do to get your dash piece off is get a screwdriver or if you hve really strong fingers and gently pull off the cover from all the sides so you dont stress it.

I hve messed around with my dash trim and ive pulled it pretty far, but never off, but it seems like it will come off.

I have a 99 a4, so it might be different if you have a different car.

On MY door handle, there is a screw that you have to unscrew

Sorry i dont have experience or anything to really help you.

Found out how!!!! Door trims pop right out. But the center dash trim doesn't. You need to remove a few parts
from the dash, including the light control switch. There are about7 or 8 bolts that need to be removed. Not
very easy but not very hard either. Took me about 40 minutes at most just for the center trim. And less than 30 seconds
for all four door trims! They're getting painted now so let's see how easy it is to pop them back on. lol.

Thanks for your help though.
