back door trim should be easier than front door trim.

from memory when i did mine, i wound the window down took off the rubber strip at the top, unscrewed about three nails (one in the door handle and two sitting underneath the armrest) and then it should just pop off.

hope this helps

yeh back door is very easy.

1) Pull off the Armrest cover by grabbing around edges and lifting upwards, they are all clips.

2) Pull Power Window Switch Upwards also and unclip wiring harness from beneath it.

3) Unscrew 2 philipshead screws where the armrest cover was. And 1 screw behind Chrome door handle hidden behind little cover.

4) Grab door trim around the bottom edges and pull Firmly all around the door until the trim is hanging off the window panel.

5) Lift Whole Trim upwards to remove.

As for the Neon lighting. I am running to LED strips under the footwells off the factory Ciggie lighter and its fine. Have put and inline Switch Also.

Hope that helps.

putting in my back speakers was pretty messy. i ended up chiseling out my rear speakers coz i didn't have the right tools to get them out

back speakers are 5 and a quarter inch. you'll need new speaker pods i reckon

and also use daviboy's suggestion to remove doors, mine was a half assed job lol!
