Removal of trim on bottom of drivers door

Hi Guys, need to remove the trim on the exterior of the drivers door, the black one at the bottom, as I want to clean off some overspray, how are they supposed to unclip? Is brute force and ignorance the best way?

On the passenger side it seems one of the clips has broken, but I can't pull enough of the trim to see how it clips back, again without ripping it off, looks like there are some rivets there?

While its off I might even replace one as its badly scratched....

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

Wayne

pretty simple... The black strip on the inside slides along. You'll see screws there holding the outside strip on, and away you go.

Thanks again, got it off, although made a bit of a mess of the rubber trying to get the overspray off, the rubber is easy to damage by friction when rubbing a cloth up and down.

The nearside one has a clip broken, so now I know how it works, I tackle that one next....another thing off the list!
