Interior panel work

alright, i know these how to questions are prolly getting annoying with everyone, but im not finding anything on the search results and am trying to do all of this myself ASAP as my car is in several pieces due to the parts i COULD figure out

BioHazard, i know you did a lot of this yourself as well, and imhoping you have some pictures or words of advice

in short: i need a how-to or help removing the door panels (crank wont work, alternatives? or ill just mask it off), the glove compartment piece, the panels that the AC vents are in (the black ones), the A-pillars, and ANY of the other beige colored pieces that are removable anywhere throughout the car

1. search around for the dash, under how toos.
2. in order to get the window crank off, you need to buy a special 8 dollar tool to get a ring off of it. then its just unscrewing a few screws, slide the door panel up and then off. carefull of the wiring...

i FINALLY got the door panels off thanks to a friend at pep boys!
so the panels are off, taped up, and ready to paint after school tomorrow, along with some of the trim piece along the foot of the door where the hood release is and the same piece on the passenger side.
ive got the piece that the trunk release is on also removed, and haven't tried any of the bak seat pieces yet, though i think those will be just as easy as the trim below the door

so basically, all i need help with, is how to remove thew glove compartment piece, the A pillar, and the pieces that are already painted black (the ones that touch the windshield)?
