One thing the others left out that I thought I would add.
When you pull those door panels away from the body metal you'll find that many of them won't hold the panel in place once you try to re-install the panel.
Those are white cheap plastic, not nylon, "christmas tree" type push in "buttons". When you pull or pry them out of the hole in the metel, the cheap plastic ridges that held them in place are "smeared" or wiped out and won't hold again.
Even though those "buttons" are a cheap plastic, the replacement cost is not. I've seen them in some auto stores for over $2.50 to $3.50 each, when it probably only cost about 3 cents each to make them.
See if you can find those white "christmas tree" holders on-line for a fair price, and if you do find some, buy about ten to fifteen extra.
Also make sure you get the right ones.
Some that "look" right or "are close" don't work well at all. Various ones are too small for the hole or don't have the right fitting for the panel. The white ones for a Mercury Sable 96-99, look like a Christmas tree with two bases.
Normal vibration over the years will cause those cheap holders to lose the holding ridges and you'll suddenly have interior panels popping loose all over the place.
