Default Removing Triangles between window and Sail Panel.

Has anyone removed the Triangle pieces that are mounted between the Door window and the Sail Panel? How are they removed?

i thin youre thinkin of the wrong piece. hes talking about the piece that is behind the side windows and is attached the the sail panel. this is held on with adhesive. a putty knife is the only thing thats gonna take it off, but be careful not ot break them!!! you have to pry it.
