Mazda vs Ranger Door Panels

Are they the same when it comes to removing them? I am having a ***** of a time removing mine. What are the exact steps to removing them for painting, just the part with the switches on them?

they are exactly the same, there are two screws behind the actual handle part, then it will pop off, you have to pull it off- it wont break just pull on it.

I have taken those screws out but the switches will not "pop" out, thats where the problem lies, I see 2 different clips, one being metal the others being plastic

ohhh oh oh, you just need to get the switches out of the bezel, im a dumbarse.. there are clips on the power mirror switch and it pops off, the power window and lock switches have a screw then you have to pry them off using a screw driver. Hope that helps!
