Default Door panel removal??

I haven't really looked at it yet, but I figured I would ask for a few tips or tricks. I need to remove the passenger side door panel off of my 98. Never did a C5 had the panels off the ZR1 and my 91 lots of times. I couldn't help but notice the lack of screws on the C5 panels. Are they just using nothing but the press in fasteners or are there some hidden screws???

It's all plug and play on the C5's. Be sure to pull the doors near the fasteners, as they tend to break if you pull the door from far away.
