03 escalade door panel rem

how in the hell to you get this door panel off? if encountered a few caddy cars that were a bitc$ to get the panel off before, is this the same setup? where they use a funky clip system instead of a bolt by the door handle area? ive got the rear 7mm bolt removed behind the door handle, but i cant get the "clip" on the front side of the handle to budge.......Mike Battaglia
