Rear Upper Door Pad Removal

I am trying to help out another member by reproducing rear upper door pad screw clips but need to remove them from my own car in order to reverse engineer them accurately.
What is the procedure for removing the door pads? I have both screws out but it appears that the window felt/seal is attached to the body and upper door pad somehow. Is it possible to remove the pad without damaging any of the window seals? Thanks!

the window felt is usually stapled to the pad itself. with the rear screw and front door jamb area one out, the pad is held onto the mount with a few push in clips. it can be tough to pop them free, but when done (from the bottom i think is easiest) the pad can "flip up" towards the glass slightly and comes off.

Thanks, armor64 that was exactly the information I needed. Got the pad off without damaging the felts or any of the clips  :2thumbs:
