Replacing Door Pocket Lids

[blundgren77]

2001 Boxster. My drivers door, door pocket lid has a broken spring, and it's got some scratches on it. I'd like to just replace it. I Can order the new one for cheap enough, but how do I get the old one off? Looked at it, but I can't quite tell. Does one have to remove the entire door trim and everything and unscrew it from the back side? Easier way?

Thanks!

the hinges have pins in them

use an awl or similar object to press out the pin
