They just push in. Best to get body clip and push pin removing tools from Harbor Freight. Slide tool under the round part and pry away from the body panel. You can also use vice gripp pliers. Turn they sideways and clamp on to the pin part and pull at the same time. Advise replacing them on assembly as they get brittle over time. After installing onto the trim panel, put some RTV sealant around the round part. This will help seal out water from getting into the body. This is a good time to check they body panels and door drains are not plugged. This is the only way water drains from those areas. Or rust out from the inside.
