Lol... You shouldn't be installing something if you can't even remove a kick panel.. Sorry to be an ***.. I just found this very funny.. Go back to your car and use your brain and look how its put into place.. then look what is still holding it in place..

But again STFF

It will help if you remove the panel below the glove compartment. (2 torx screws) The kick panel is held into place with 2 clips that are behind the fabric trim near the door. Peal the fabric back and you will see 2 spots that are clipped into the chassis. Slide a large flat head screw driver under the kick panel near each clip and pry the panel toward the center of the car.

Good luck.
