Hi there,
Anyone have any idea on how skirt rocker panel is removed?
This is the panel that goes from wheel to wheel under both doors and is plastic. I have removed the screws to rear of front wheel and screw ahead of the rear wheel and all of the nylon retainers on the underside of the panel. Is it possible there are trim clips on back side of panel. I want to remove panel to address rust behind it.

Thanks for any assistance provided.

 

Look around in here for it.

My L has push pins on the bottom also. Don’t know about your VUE.

 

You are correct. There are clips behind the molding. You will need a pry tool to pop them off. Be careful as they are probably getting brittle and are difficult to find.

 

Gently pulling by starting at the front, clips did release as I proceeded. Circled area in photo I found, indicates the two clip locations that stayed attached to vehicle. Both were still usable.
Thanks
