Dont do what I did and try to pry with a screwdriver , you'll just f*ck up the paint and break the clips. I guess your best bet is to take off your door and body panels, squeze the clips and PUSH lol. For the fender molding, simply unscrew a few of the inner fender retainer clips. Push aside, squeze, PUSH!

There's supposed to be a clip or something on the side panels that'll just let em come right off. I'm not sure where it is, but keep searching because I've seen the info on this board.

Yeah whats these guys said, take all your interior apart. Its a whole **** ton of work but its the only way to save the clips.
