Question Woodgrain Trim Removal Help Needed!

How do you remove the wide lower woodgrain trim mouldings? I think that there is a special tool that you use and where can I purchase one?
I know that this has been discussed before, but I cannot find the thread.

Thanks in advance.................

Re: Woodgrain Trim Removal Help Needed!

On the very front and farthest back pieces there are 2 screws kind of hidden by the bumpers, the rest all have 3/8 nuts on the insides on each end.. some are a challenge to get too!! then in the center of the door and box trim there are glue on plastic clips.. (assuming your working on a 72, 69/70 use metal push in clips and they are a real pain!) I usually use a flat plastic windshield tool to push under the trim next to each glue on clip. A plastic ended kitchen spatula will work good too.. just work slowly and carefully and you should be able to remove them all without any damage. I destroyed one on my very first attempt!!
