Get a bunch of zip-loc baggies and a digital camera. Take a bag and tag it for each component, then place all the clips and fasteners into the bag. Take many pictures of each thing you take apart, including before pictures. This will help you remember all the little things you will forget when you go to put it back together...
Also, take your time... don't force things.. plastic likes to break....

sorry I wasnt clear, I was asking.. are there any hidden bolts, nuts clips I should be aware of.
last night I only had the chance to remove the drivers door panel and fix the central locking on the donor car.. so I havnt done anything more than that. but with seats, the under belly of the dash, the rear shelf etc.. are there anything I need to be aware of when removing them.
I know with nissan (300zx) and my porche 911 everything was hidden.. you think you were able to remove bits then found that there was a torx head or screw you missed.
Everything requires some force.. take that door panel for instance. First door I ever and I mean EVER worked on that had 2 screws only!!!! plus the rest just easy plastic clips...

Is this the kind of info you're after?

If so, the JTIS is going to be your new best friend. You can download it from the FAQ's.

Also, get a set of these.... Will help to release clips yet not damage the finish...
One of the most used tools in my set..
Cheap Harbor Freight Set
More expensive Summit Racing set
Have a set of both.. Both work fine. The Summit Racing set is better made, but the cheap set from Harbor Freight has not failed yet..
