72 Charger w/full vinyl top that has some rust under it. I'm wanting to remove the trim and top and need help on the trim removal. Anyone have any removal instructions or videos I could use or look at? I sure don't want to mess up the trim as it's expensive to find/replace as you are aware of. Any guidance would be much appreciated. Thanks!

Pal nuts under these holes-see photos.
Plastic retainers in the remaining areas.

Tools for the plastic clips. Good luck with those clips...

Those nuts under the V trim are a BITCH and it's real easy to break the stud and/or other parts of the pot metal trying.
