Trunk side interior trim removal and installation

Hi all lovely fit/jazz owners!
I've had my 2009 Jazz 1.2 for 1½ year or so now, and recently my trunk side trim panels have become lose, so therefore i need to remove then and replace the supposed clips? that hold them in place.

However, does any one out there actually know how to remove these trim panels properly?

Here's a pic of what I want to remove:



The black side trim on both sides. NOT the upper lighter coloured part.

Thanks in advance.

A quick look at YouTube shows multiple videos explaining trim removal on Hondas. Not sure if any are specific to your year..but they should be similar. YouTube is a wealth of info.

I took those off for fun not too long ago, but unfortunately I can’t remember exactly how.

look around for screws/bolts. Most modern panels have a couple and the rest is clips. Once you find and remove hard fasteners, find a place you can start prying and work your way around until you can pull it the rest of the way off. You will have to pull fairly hard and it may feel like you’re going to break something. Just take it slow and steady. You may or may not have to remove other pieces depending on how they overlap. Hope that helps!

Now on to the task to find the correct clips in my collection of clips!

Hopefully I can get this sorted, it makes a lot of sounds on bumpy roads when it's not fully fastened correctly.
