The one on the back below the window? if so it just push vertically on it and it slides off.

Re: cab band
If its the one below the rear window that wraps around the side of the cab you reach up on the inside of the cab behind the seat there will be a hole above the cab corner, somewhere up there past your wrist but before your elbow you'll feel one of those speed nuts, can't recall the size, maybe around 3/8" or 10mm, loosen that then the cab corner piece will slide out of the long piece below the window. I've always slid the long piece all the way out the side to get it off and same for reassembly slide it all the way back on. But maybe those plastic clips do have some spring to them you can just push down on it to release the bottom.

Re: cab band
You will have to take off the side corner trim pieces first. Reach up inside where the factory rear speakers go and there is a nut up in there that has to come off. Then the corners will come out. The long middle trim piece you can then just slide it out from either the drivers or passenger side. If you need too grab onto it with needle nose pliers and give it a gentle pull.
