You might look under the fridge door gasket for screws.  These should hold
the fridge "liner" into the fridge "cabinet".

Most if not all of the trim is probably NOT going to need removed.  The
cabinet tops are simply held by screws from below.

If you do find that you need to remove a wood plug, use a wood screw to
screw into the center of the plug.  The screw tip will push down against
the screw head beneath the plug and then will start lifting the plug out.
It usually leaves a very clean hole.  The trim on my boat is cherry.  Teak
doesn't match so make sure you know what type of wood you have and match
your plugs to it.  Worst case scenario you will have to cut plugs if tou
can't find matching wood.  Easy to do with a plug cutter.  Glue the new
plug in and then shave off the plug head until it is flush.  Lightly sand
with a block and then stain/oil/finish.  Despite having used teak plugs in
my cherry trim, mine finished nicely with teak colored Danish oil.
