Silver interior trim removal for plasti-dipping

Hey there, recently i tried my hand at plasti-dipping some of my silver trim pieces and i loved the way they came out. I did the part around the shifter and the two on the sides of the ac controls, but im not done quite yet.

I got my ac vent trim out with little problem, but im trying to figure out how to take off the trim on the bottom of the steering wheel and the ones on the door handles. If anyone can shed any light on how to remove those two easily, i would greatly appreciate it, and then follow up with pics

For doors, start at the bottom of the silver piece and pry out. they will be hard to pop out. One they do work up slow and keep pulling the bottom away from the door. The top part has a tab that slides in. just start from the bottom and NOT THE TOP.

for steering wheel, pull air bag fuses. Then there are 3 holes in steering wheel. Inside there is a metal clip. You need to push that clip in (small screwdriver) while pulling out on air bag. Do all 3 and airbag will be out. Then their are 2 screws holding that silver piece on. You should be all set.

Look at my thread in this section there are pictures of the wheel done so you can see how it looks
