driver side, there are 7 claws and 2 clips, you just really have to use your hand (nails) and start pull it out, starting from the top/outside

for passenger side, it's 4 claws and 2 clips. similar, pull, starting from top/outside

for both, the clips are on the outside corners (closest to door)

hope this helps
