Default Side Skirt Removal

Any tips on removing the stock side skirts? I did a search....nada. I took the bottom clips off, the end screws off, but there seems to be fasteners holding the center portion on that are different than the regular pop off fasteners.......

Once you've removed the seven clips and two tapping screws from the front and rear of the rocker molding, there are two more screws holding the rocker molding on. You have to slightly undo the weather stripping and unscrew them. I've attached this diagram for reference:


Once you remove those last two screws, pull the rocker molding away from the vehicle starting at the rear. Hope this helps!
