Hey guys, need some help repairing the fuel filler latch assembly (the section of the assembly on the vehicle, NOT the fuel filler door). I cannot see how to get the fuel door actuator (part ARV780020G) and the Fuel Door Spring Retainer (part BPA780110G) off to replace them. I have the latch repair kit with all the plastic parts and the spring and access to the shop manuals, but I can't seem to figure out if I need to take off the body trim to gain access, if the black trim immediately around the inside of the fuel filler area pops off, or if I need to just pull the parts out by force where they are at. Please help me understand what I need to do to fix this. I'm also in a hurry because I'm going out of town for work and won't be able to do this for a while. Pictures, video, and/or felt board explanations are always welcome, but anything will help and is GREATLY appreciated. Thank you!

The parts should just pull out. Then the fit back together in a certain order, and orientation.

Here is a thread, and a couple of pictures which should help you. Substitute . for / and remove the spaces.
