Carbon interior trims for F26

Hi guys,

Wondering if anyone has done this. I managed to change the dashboard and middle part quite easily but the carbon door panels seem to have two screws which requires opening the entire door panel. Carbon interior panels for the F30 are all clips, no screws.
Any ideas?

I have installed the complete interior carbon kit on my F30 (pics attached below). All parts were easily removed and replaced as all parts only had clips. 10 minute job. The F26 kit however, except for the dashboard part, appears to be held in place with screw holes AND clips, apparently requiring one to remove the entire door panel(s) in order to unscrew the original part. Just wanted to check if this is the only way or not...?

The first two pics show the carbon fiber M performance dash and door handle on the F30. The 3rd pic shows the M performance dashboard part which I installed on the F26 which easily clipped in place. Below that is the original door panel on the F26, and the final two pics show the carbon fiber door panel. You can see what appears to be two screw holes on the back of the panel.
