I finally had enough of my truck shutting down at lights and I got this installed. As I mentioned, their video showed them lifting the panel only on the end, but the online instructions showed them removing a whole bunch of extra panels. I used a door removal tool to pry the panel up on the sides and it popped up fine. I didn't need to remove the extra panels. Thanks to Mr Schilke for the tip.
Something like this that I've had in my toolbox for 20 years:
Harbor Freight has a more appropriate set of non-marring plastic tools for $10 though.
It's still hard to get my big hands in there and unclip that little side clip to pull the plug out though. So I took a wire hanger to cut up and bent a little L to stick into the tab area of the plug to push while I tug on the plug. I could reach the tab from the outside them. Then it popped out.
