Front door belt molding removal?

Who’s replaced the molding on the door at the bottom of the window? Does the side mirror need to come off?

I'll be interested in how difficult this is. My driver door trim piece is peeling.

Well the door panel needs to obviously come off, there's a video on YouTube that comes up in a simple google search, after the door panel is off its pretty self explanatory how to remove the mirror, and then the belt molding probably has a screw through the door, it's been a while since I took one off.

The belt moulding is just pressed on. I’ll google the video, just figured I’d see if anyone had a link.
