ideally you need ot carefully remove the end peices that slot into the main peice and onto a metal bit on the roof.
then you just prise the trim out carefully off the roof rail thats under the trim.
the plastic will be brittle so take your time.

I have always done it as one piece, they slide either forwards or backwards(can't remember which way, it's been a while) onto a kind of mushroom shaped post. They can be a bit tight to get moving and will break if you are too rough with them.

Figured it out last weekend luckily.
Just got a trim tool underneath at the back and slowly worked it out from the back to the front.
