Ford Excursion Door Problem

One of my door ajar switches is sticking causing the interior lights to remain on. The switch is integrated with each latch which is mounted inside each door.
1-How do I get the cargo door trim panels off without breaking plastic rivets and the trim itself?
2-What is a safe/recommended lubricant for the plunger on the switch?

efore doing this, when you find the door, you have to replace the latch assembly.

have a shop with a scanner tell you which door, then you replace the failed one.

remove all the screws and either a good pull or on some lift it up then out.
