I used a 90* pick to pull out the top piece then just grab the bottom piece and pull it out. Some guys have used a flat blade screw driver with tape wrapped around it to pry the top trim out. It only takes 10 seconds to get them off. Don't waste your time removing the inner fender.

I used a plastic squeege type thing (I sell decals on ebay) to pry then out. My son fell asleep in his company truck a month or so back and ran in a ditch and the one on the ditch side popped right out! I wouldn't recommend the ditch method though.
