Thank you for the reply! I tried several times to push/pull this part to the rigt place but I wasn't successful. I am afraid those white plastic nuts on the car will broke if I try harder. I thougt there is a "secret method" how to install this part correctly

Barring that, there may be a SST (special service tool) to remove it, that may look the fork end of a crowbar that is designed to get in there and release those fasteners without breaking anything. You can get SSTs from the dealership but their cost is often ridiculous for what they are and you're not likely to use them ever again. Last option is bring it to dealer and pay them their one hour labor to just do it if you're not comfortable mangling it off.

Thank you for the answer! I had a little accident when the moulding patrially came off so I took it off completely. Fortunately the car and the outsite of the moulding wasn't harmed, there were some breaks only on the inside of the moulding which I fixed already. I decided to put it back, but it isn't seemed so trivial however the plastic fasteners on the door are unharmed as you can see on my pictures. It is impossible to put the moulding back with the fasteners already on the door (without an SST). Thank you for your hep!

Yes, you need to break those clips stuck in the car off and buy new clips like was said above Once you have the clips on the trim they should push onto the car easily.
