I just removed mine today 11-06-11. Be very careful when doing this. Take care not to force anything loose or it will break. First you have to use a Phillips head screw driver to remove the fasteners around the bottom of the tail gate to start.
You may need to use a straight edge screw driver to help pry them loose. after you remove the fasteners you can begin to pry the panel loose from the outer skin. Here is where I recommend caution. Pry from top to bottom and then from left to right. A little at a time till you feel sure you can pull it straight away from the metal skin of the door.
I broke the very middle one. You will see that the fasteners are attached to the skin with a metal clip that secures both skin and panel together.
Putting it back together will be easier. Good luck.

The inside door panel cannot be removed; instead, to get to the inner workings of the door remove the OUTER panel. Lift the outer door handle to expose the pins that hold the outer handle to the door mechanism. Then press out the pins and remove the handle. Then remove the screws around the perimeter of the door that hold the outer panel. The panel should lift off, exposing all of the inner workings, then you can verify that the inner panel does NOT come off.
