1970 Cutlass Supreme door moulding removal

Any advice on how to remove this moulding? the assembly manual shows some clips holding it on but i don't know what to use to get it off. i see that the clips are screwed on from inside the door and under the quarter window and on the rear of the fenders but i prefer not to have to take off the door panels or fenders if possible. I see how to get the ones off that surround the front and rear markers though.

thanks

It's been 20 years so my memory may be a bit off, but I think the door molding is held on with screws at the front and rear that are visible when the door is open, so they are easily removed. The clips in the center area are nylon and are slipped onto nail-head studs to attach them to the door, then the molding is simply snapped onto them. To remove, use a plastic tool to lift the molding off the clip.
