Default Removing dash trim help

Greetings everyone!

Need some help from you all. There is a squeaky noise coming behind this trim below (the foamy trim). If I push it down with my hand while driving it goes away. I am trying to avoid a trip to the dealer. I can put some felt behind it and will most likely fix it

Could someone please guide me how to remove the trim? I tried by removing the side panel, but couldn’t locate the right screw.

Remove the 4 grab handle torx bolts and grab handle, then remove the one small black torx screw that comes in from the left side of the trim piece. Then just pull the rounded trim piece off toward you. There are 4 spring clips that attach it. I lined the back with adhesive felt and snapped it back on. All quiet. You can buy sheets of adhesive felt in the Walmart sewing department.
