The trims on the door you just got to pry up (gently) and pull out. Remove the connectors on them and you're good to go.
As far as removing the center console, this guide should help you do that...

+1 on this. Pretty straightforward, just take your time and be patient so you don't mess anything up.

Make sure you just use your fingers to pull up on the trim. Using a screwdriver can cause damage.

^ You can use the plastic pry tools by your fingernails are enough.

You can, just make sure you buy the right kind for your car. It's also ridiculously expensive to buy it from a dealership/Sewell - your best bet is the classifieds.
