[Tigers] Side molding fastners

[Gary]

They hold the trim down so it can not come off without damage but...
If you slide the the trim horizontally, it will slide easily, ie: not 
clamped.
Look at the backside of the trim, there is a cut section near the end.  
Slide it so that section
is over the square head and wa-la the trim comes off.  Trim is not 
clamped by the square pins.
So, the whole procedure is:
  un-snap trim at the rivet type pieces
  slide the trim to the backside opening over the square screw holders
  put trim piece aside
