Default best way to remove rear passenger weatherstrip window belt molding

can anyone tell me the best way to remove rear passenger weatherstrip window belt molding and where can I see a replacement? It seems that the rear passenger window molding does not align with the driver side due to broken clip. Thanks in advance.

i dont have any further details but I think that with the diagram of the pieces I enclosed it will be very apparent. I did both front doors/windows and it all came off easily. edit On looking at it further it seems that subassy piece is riveted in but do you really need to go that far to fix the weatherstripping...?

thank you for your help. I just wanted to see if I can just take out the outer chrome belt line piece out without disabling the interior.
