DIY Removing Rear Side Panels from MCSC

My car is half apart right now. I took out the rear seats, but from there I'm not sure how to get the rear interior panels off.

I saw some posts that you just start pulling them off on the standard cooper, but what about in a convertible? Anyone know how to remove these rear side panels?

Please help, thanks.

I have instructions here: http://www.northamericanmotoring.com..._rear_trim.pdf

It's very easy, but a couple of my fasteners were impossibly stuck and I couldn't pull them out without destroying them (replacement fasteners from the dealer were cheap).

Thanks, I got them off with no problem and was even lucky enough that all the fasteners came out ok!
