They may just be snap-out panels. However, to be on the safe side, I'd pull one of the door panels off to see if there are any retaining clips from the back side.

BTW, if you find that there are retaining clips on the back side of the door panels, could you snap a pic of them and the removal process to post in the above mentioned link. Thanks.

The color-matched interior door panel insert is held by 3 or 4 screws and built-in clips around the insert.
Let me find the pictures that I took when I painted the side mirrors and I'll post them.

Follow the red arrows for the three screws. After the screws are removed, push out the clips and the panel insert is out of the door panel.
