Sorry, could you be a bit more descriptive, or put up a pic? My guess is that you're talking about the door sill, but not sure.

No problem on the English. The pics will help; unfortunately, I've never removed that piece. Hopefully, someone will have done this before and post an answer for you.

Did you jack it up and look at the inside of it? Just wondering if there's an inner lip that you have to push it out from under or another inside trim piece that helps keep it where it is.

there are clips under the car and under the door sills that you have to remove it pretty simple.. and that's a "Rocker Panel" or "Side Skirt" we call it :-)

Yep, that's what he means. The door sills you just basically pull off from the body, except there's one in front that you have to worry a bit about. Be careful! The door sill panel clips are very delicate.
