Removing 1st Gen Door Panels

I'm about to dive into the sick window regulators, which requires the removal of the inside door panels. I thought I would check in here for any things I need to know before doing this. It seems that the rag trick is the way to get the window crank handle off, and the inside door latch looks straight forward. How about the rest of the panel removal, anything I should know so I don't break/rip things up? Is the panel just held in with clips that pull out, or are there screws or other fasteners that need attention before you yank?

It helps to use the GM window crank spatula [think pancakes] to remove clip. [Watch fling] The door panel is made from cardboard so the steel door panel clips like to tear out. There is a special tool to use to help unclip/unplug these clips. I think there are 10 clips. The speaker is in it's own bolted flange. Nothing else stands out other than the cheesy cardbord.
