I would actually like to know how all the interior panels come off. I know there are good writeups on the doors and dash but what about the rear panels the lift gate and seatbelt pillars??? I am speaking 3rd gen here. can any one help me out ??

The side pillar panels pop off. You have to remove the lower scuff panel first. All panels have clips that can break...they are plastic and will probably get more brittle with age. Use care and finesse, pry with a slot driver if you can see the clip to pop it. The rear cargo area is also all clips. Remove the scuff panel first and work your way up. I pulled the sides to install eye hooks for my cargo net, I did not completely remove it, but I assume it's all clips holding it in. Clip's are'nt designed to be removed a lot of times...be careful. It's luck too.

Most likely a dealer item. Good luck.

They are a dealer item - but if they do not break completely, you can rebend them to make a nice tight fit again
