Default Conv Top Mldg Removal?

Anyone know what it takes to remove the body mldg that goes around the base of the top at the body. I call it the belt mldg. I have taken a look at it and I can't see how it comes off. I am painting the car and that is the only thing I havn't taken off of it yet. Any help would be appreciated.

So the whole top has to be removed? Or just the plastic under the back.

you need to remove the plastics out back in order to expose the rain gutter. The you need to remove the rear part of the top ... by now, you mind as well remove the top too
