Body side molding

I'm trying to find out if these side moldings are glued on or screwed on somehow

Once you get them off, get one of the eraser type drill

attachments

tog et the tape residue off. I really like the look without those trim pieces.

I just took mine off since I could NEVER get the damn things to stay attached properly. I bought some 3M adhesive remover, which i need to try out soon.

I probably could have looked at YouTube and found the answer but I thought I would ask on here. Hopefully a heat gun will help take them off instead of trying to glue them back on
