Press on the rear cover between the analog sticks and slightly lift the lower edge of it away from the rest of the controller.
it’s not very clear but for this step you need to push where the yellow dot is shown on the picture. it’s rather tough. you kind of have to move the whole back plate a bit for it to work.

I accidentally popped a trigger off, and both L1 and R1, because I skimmed and didn't read this step. Fortunately it's not hard. The tricky part with the triggers is that there's a little spring on them. You have to press the side of the spring that's pointing away from the trigger against the sloped surface of the controller (look at the other trigger for reference, if you only popped one off). Then you just slide the trigger on until the "handlebar" bits near the center click into place.
The reset button – a small mostly-rectangular rubberized piece – fell out as I removed the rear cover. It covers the hole near the middle screw and has a post that presses SW1 on the motherboard.

While holding the black plastic trigger retainer with one hand, pull the #2 trigger off of its axle.

For this step, i would suggest looking at the other trigger to get an idea of how to put it back in. So if you were replacing the L2 button look at R2 and vice versa.
Then looking at the picture above, just make sure that the spring is aligned in a similar fashion to the other button. Pushing it forward to match might help as the spring might fall out of place.

Might want to add that there's a small catch/tab in the middle of the bottom of the controller that needs to be released when taking apart the covers.
This worked great, and also works on normal Sixaxis controllers. I used this to swap the broken spring from the L2 button on my DS3 for a good spring from my Sixaxis. Works like new now.
The #00 screwdriver is working better
Did you replace button 2 rod with plastic replacement part or use original rod piece when fixing button 2
Is there a way I can buy trigger retainers?
I have SIXAXIS gamepad and I don’t know how to put it back I see it have ribborn.
