the floor panel needs to come off in order for you to get leverage to get the side panels off that will come off with a flat screwdriver the sides pull off with force the top "fins" come off easier than the rest may need to replace some Christmas tree retaining pins. I have a 2002 Chrysler t&c replaced the rear blower resistor you can email if you need more detailed info crumbob47@gmail.com
