Use a thin flat blade screw driver to pry off the little door lock slide (the part that shows red when doors are unlocked).

You need to fit it behind the metal rod and pry. It should snap off..

He's not talking about the door lock handle. Use a flat blade screwdriver to pry the little metal pin off the window crank.

Josh, my bad.. You're right.

For some reason it registered that the door lock thingy was preventing the panel removal. Perhaps I got too much wind today (~200 mile bike ride).
