Does anyone know how to properly remove this plastic trim panel from the retractable top? Thanks.

I took a rectangular plastic box (I think 2x4 wood block would work also), used 3M double sided tape and attached to the middle of the trim. Tap the bottom of the block with a hammer or a rubber mallet towards the top. Piece will slip up and out.
