126 winter woes

[jeffrylebowski]

My 87 560 sel is spending it's 2nd full winter in Canada after living the first 18 years of it's life in California. All things considered it's been handling the cold quite well. Some big oil leaks but the engine runs smooth. However, I have noticed some rust starting to form underneath the panels on the bottom 3rd of the door. It looks as though those panels just pop off but I am hesitant to break any plastic clips that might hold it in place. Does anyone know the proper technique to get these panels off?
