Angry Driver door panel removel!!!! Help please

I have a 92 Sc and can't get the brown part where my tweeter is apart from where my door handle and window switch are. How do I get the panel off of the door when the handle feels like it's the only thing holding it on together. I've taken the 3 shrews off from the bottom of the door, the 2 by the hinge and the ones from the arm rest handle are they're anymore?

There are 8 bolts that hold the panel to the door. Two near the hinges 3 under the panel 2 under the Arm rest and 1 behind the door handle. No need to unscrew bolts from the tweeter unless you want to take the trim off

I'll keep this in mind for when I do my black interior swap in a few weeks.

I'm gonna take mine apart in the next few days for the exact opposite reason. According to SoarerCentral it's a good idea to take them apart every few years to tighten all the screws that loosen up from constantly being shut over the years. Last week I actually heard a screw fall out somewhere in there lol..
