Trim removal

Anybody have experience of removing the trim that surrounds the drivers window/mirror/access switches as I am fitting a replacement that I know pushes on but I want to know which end to pull up first to remove old?

I take it you have removed the door card? You access them all from behind I think THE INVENTOR OF THE TERM "FULL-FAT RANGE ROVER" :

I think from memory the door car has to be removed to allow the switch panel to come off

Again from memory remove the two screws at the end of the pocket and the screw from the interior door handle. Using a large flay bladed screwdriver gently prize the bottom of the door card away from the door, it is held on with plastic poppers, once you have a couple of the poppers prized from the door use your hand to pull the card away. Once all poppers are loose lift the door card upwards to release it from the top
