I'm down to one fastener. It's not clear what's holding the trim piece on in the front. What am I dealing with here?

Did you get the screw that's under the front door lip?

Thanks! Mine is buried halfway under the door skin where it folds over. It looks like a different screw with a bigger head. My first attempt at removing it failed, it seems to be rusted in place too. Jeez. I sprayed it with WD40 and will try again later.

That trim piece had a surprising amount of dirt under it -

I wasn't planning to remove the other side but I will now.
 
I drilled out the heads on my originals to get them off. Soaked the clips in areo kroil and got the remainder out with some pliers. Bought new screws when I reinstalled.
