Default 1955 Fairlane body side moulding clips.

Can someone school me on how they are held to the body? Trim is off but I am hesitant as to how to remove the clips from the body.

I don't have a clue so.... When you find the one that matches yours the picture will hopefully make the answer clear.

These clips are installed in the square punched holes by inserting the short tab so it abuts the edge of the hole and push in the long tab in to the hole. While holding the clip in place with one hand, insert an awl or
similar tool to spread the long tab tight against its side of the hole.
To remove, use a pair of channel lock pliers and grip the ends long ways and squeeze the pliers. The clip should pop right off.
