Well, that depends on which style you have. If you have the metal moulding with the rubber inserts (early style), the rubber strips will have to be pulled out and the rivets removed to take off the metal part. If you have the kind that are just put on with adhesive, you should be able to just pull them off, or use a razor knife to help seperate the adhesive backing.

I wouldnt recommend that though unless you are going to be repainting your car.

Yeah, you should be able to peel those pieces right off. It will probably leave alot of sticky stuff on the door that you will have to get off though.

If you cant peel them off at first, you can start it with a razor knife like I said before, and then grab ahold of it.
