There screwed in, not glued like on hatchbacks.

You need to take off your door panels to get to the screws.

I believe there's also clips that hold them in place. Just be careful not to snap any.

They are held in with clips that you have to pinch together from the back. Remove the door panels and the plastic lining and you will see the clips. Remove the rear seats and all the interior paneling and you will see the clips in the rear. Pull the fender lining back to get to the ones on the fender.
