Removing rocker panel trims / covers

How difficult / easy is this on a W124 and a W126?

I have some rust on both in that area. Not too surprised on the W126, but I thought that W124's didn't rust...

They are held on with pressure clips that typically break when you remove them. Typical removal is to slide the panel towards the rear, then lift from the body.

As a little "factoid" in addition to being called "cladding" or "protection panels" they are also nicknamed "Sacco Panels" in honor of their designer.
