I don't have any badges, only the strips, there were never any badges and aren't meant to be on mine, guess I just pull it back then?

too remove the door strips on a three door you need to open the door you will see a black grommit on the inside of the door in line with the strip. take out this grommit and you will need a flat bladed screw driver and a torch to be able to see the retaining lug on the back of the door strip you will need to push this out and slide the door trim backwards and remove the badges first if you have them. the rear ones dont come off as the haynes manual tells you. you will break the clips removing these and there in no way around that unless to take of the rear internal door card and possibly break those clips as well. i think when i removed mine i pulled them towards the front of the car with the door open, this broke one clip on each trim
