Upholstered panel button removal

2022 Tab 400. Does anyone know how to remove a button? Panel is loose at one ceiling edge spot at the front of the bed. It seems a fastener underneath has come loose from its mounting to the trailer frame. I assume the first step in fixing this is to remove the nearby buttons. Thanks

    Just pop it off with a flat head screw driver. That will reveal the screw head underneath it.

    What are these screws screwed into? I would have thought an aluminum frame crosspiece??

    No, most of them are just screwed into the thin inner lining of the trailer.

    Best way to fix the issue is to apply a small dab of adhesive silicone around the screw area and push the panel back up.

    A couple of mine pulled loose so I had to superglue some toothpicks into the holes, let it dry and then screw back into them. It’s been fine for over a year.
