2001 E320 4Matic Wagon Rocker Panel Removal

Good day...could someone help me with the the removal of the rocker panel on a 2001 MB E320 4Matic Wagon (210 chassis). I've removed the screws on the bottom, but how is the panel attached on the side?
Thanks, Ulli.

Welcome! Please post a photo of the E320. Try posting the question in the W210 section, where more owners will see it. Have you tried removing interior trim on the door sills and floor to see how to remove the rocker panel?

In finding the other posts, additional posts not quoted mentioned metal rocker panels welded to the body. Is this the case with your vehicle? What material are your rocker panels made of?

Thanks, I've seen the YouTube videos also. None of them match. My panels are made of plastic.
