they come off quite easy but can also bend easily, i had mine off a while back to find a rattle.   dont worry if they bend though they straighten back.  and i think it would be hard to lose any clips  :happy2:  all the clips seem lose without the strips though

....So you can pull them off without removing any door cards etc?

Any tool which is best to use as a lever?

Start in the middle? End?

I would say get something reasonably pliable to try and pry them out with, if you use something of a hard material then I can image they would crack or something.. Just depends how well they are clipped down  :scared:

Sounds like a job for a nylon spatula type thingy.
