To remove the trims I use a variety of small flat blade screwdrivers and paint scrapers. To locate the clips, gently pry the trim towards the centre of the screen, as you come to the clip, it will resist. Place a small screwdriver or paint scraper along each side of the clip, and gently wriggle the trim. the trim will move itself over the clip nib that holds it and be released. Patience and time is the key here. As for the clips, you'll probably find all the lower clips have rusted out and will come out with the trims, the top ones will still be quite servicable, and for that same reason, you can get replacement clips from the top sections of wrecked cars too. To replace the trims, place and secure all the clips to their posts (if you break their little retaining posts, use a pop rivet to replicate the spacing of the post), then simply lie the trim over the clips and press down - you will here them clip into place by simply using finger pressure to push on them.
