anyone lol

From experience, and much dismantling of my Octavia (02 version), it's just plastic clips around the edge. Get something like a guitar pick and slide it round the edges, usually does the trick. Screws that hold panels on are usually in plain view.

You can't really do much actual damage with a guitar pick, but if you're trying to pry stuff open with metal screwdrivers, it can get messy.

Hope this helps a bit.

side and front of bumper (and rear), the 1 piece rub strip prises off carefully with a screwdriver, pop out from one side and work your way round

inner door handles, the plastic cover needs to be popped off, with a screwdriver or trim removal clip, they are a righ s*d to do sometimes and can result in scratched plastic

silver door pulls are part of the card, they may come out, i havent tried
