Default door sill switch

Just received my DB carbon order and I'm already stuck . I installed the passenger door sill no problem. I'm working on the drivers side and I cannot remove the switch from the sill. I've viewed the MCarbon instructions which basically says install trim tool and push up - this does NOT work! The control switch will not budge and I'm close to damaging the door sill and switch if I push any harder.

Any ideas???

For the door sill, I slid my really skinny trim tool in one area & then used a second trim tool to pry in a second area. This popped the switch out really easily. Maybe try 2 trim tools?

I also assume you have already pulled the door sill off from the car. I also pushed from underneath while using two tools & it popped out. It was a pain though.

Ok, job complete! I had to jab two trim roots from underneath then pry from on top to get the switch to release. Took a lot of pressure but was able to remove without any damage.
