Window molding removal tool

looks like the one I used. The tool slides under the trim...catch the edge of the retaining clip and twist downward or pull easily towards the center of the glass...this releases the clip. It may take a couple of tries per clip, but you will get the hang of it. It's best to work from the center of the trim to the edges,then down the sides.

Yup!
That should do it. Good idea to put some tape over the metal that will be going up against the glass so not to scratch it. Pry gently from both sides of the clip if needed. Old clips brake easy. I'd go ahead and order a new set from vendors here. Take your time.

I asked a vendor yesterday why my windshield trim has been flying off at high speed. He thinks if you bend the windshied trim channels in any
way while removing or attaching the clips that will happen. Be careful! as Mike said" Pry gently"!
 
^^^^^You drive at high speeds ;) I am going to try to look locally for the tool now that I know what it looks like. Thank you guys for the help and advice.
