disposable plugs, try to pry it out with a screwdriver while you pull the panel at the same time.

If you're gentle you can pop those out with a flat head screwdriver without damaging them. Unless those are different from the ones on my 203, but I don't think they are...

I used normal pliers and was able to grab it and pull gently. :)

Old post I know... but does anyway know where you can order these fasteners as pictured in the OP?

Been trying to find online

If they're like those in my car the fasteners have a central pin that needs to be extracted or pushed in if thats not possible. This releases the tension on the clip which then comes out fairly easily.

No central pin on these ones. They can be removed bit not always intact. Looking for spares if I need them.

Search ebay for 8mm fastener, which perfectly fit the trunk liner.
