i don't know what they even call them..but they seem fragile..anyone know best way to remove them safely? the black pieces directly behind both driver and passenger windows..thanks in advance!

Remove the trim inside the cab first.

i did that hoping i would see something inside..but nothing? im afraid to try and pry them off..unless I'm missing something obvious..thanks guys

problem solved! for ANYONE down the road wondering..good luck NOT breaking at least one of the three clips holding each one on! i used a long flat blade screwdriver..they are held on by what's similar to door clips on panels..ugh..thanks guys! now onto more prep for paint!
