Hey Express705, take a look at these DIY threads to see if they help:
http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26545 http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=75343 Work is blocking most of the pictures, so I can't see them at the moment, but they might come in handy. Good luck with the install!

They hold on pretty tight, it's pretty difficult the first time. I find it easier if you stick in a flat head screw driver into the side closer to the door and just pull the screw driver (use a longer one). You can easily insert the screw driver if you just push the dash part down a bit, they are kinda soft. Hope this helps.
