Post subject:  Bus door panel button safe removal

Anyone know a safe way to remove the chrome button fasteners to remove the front interior door panels on a split bus. I used a couple flat screw drivers and successfully removed a couple.... but I also snapped the heads off a few.

Also- I am missing a bunch and can't seem to find a place that sells them.

FLAPS have panel removal tools that would probably work better than two screw drivers.

AZ, for example, has these:

Oh man those tools would have been perfect... thanks for the help guys. Bummer that I brute-forced it already, lost some good buttons in the process. I found that working the screw drivers under the panel itself seemed to pop them out the easiest.

I modified all the interior panels of the half bus and used the good buttons that were left. I think the interior is kinda rad now.....

Yowza. You'll be getting the K9 unit for sure. Hope you've de-CSI'd it thoroughly. Not for you, of course, but who knows what the PO's left behind.
