Stuart - there's no pop rivets for these felt channels but the front one requires some dis-assembly if I recall correctly. The scrapers pull straight up but beware the clips that hold them in, if they fall out they will go straight to the bottom of the door cavity (ask me how I know). Can be retrieved, though!
