I think they are clipped on instead of glued on.

Man Prof,your car is looking extra clean dude......Good luck fixing it cuz I think if you would get it off you should be able to glue it back on somehow.

If they're anything like the 4th gen's there's tabs behind and glue. The tabs just seem to position the strip into door holes on mine, no clips I saw. A carwash took off one of mine. Lots of thick doublestick tape on the ends, and thin doublestick top & bottom of the strip edges. Try parking in hot sun to pull it off easier if needed.

Mine are peeling a tiny bit as well. I will try pulling them off on a hot day and replacing the tape.
