just pull the weather stripping off, get your fingers behind the panel, and pull. they pop off, just like the rest of our interior.

yes, just clips. Just an FYI, the B pillar trim peice hooks into the rear panels at the top front engde. Don't pull straight out or you'll brake the little peice between them. You sort of have to pull down and out to get the two apart. (IE&gt; the rear panel will be free from the car, just attached to the B panel its self)

yeah that's what I was trying to say in one of the first post...I didn't pull hard cause I didn't know how they attached.
