if your car is 99+, i think there are two on each side behind the steering wheel column. You have to take off the steering wheel column, or at least losen it to get to them.

all you have to do is remove the plastic piece on top of the column. just pop it up and pull it out. then you will see the 2 screws that hold the trim piece in.
if you need picks let me know!!! i have all the pieces out anyways!

There are screws under the steering wheel column. Take those out to loosen the column, then take the 2 screws out behind it holding the trim in place.
