356 Aft Cabin - factory window tint removal/replacement, removal of upholstered vertical window dividers
The factory window tint on my front and side windows is flaking off in areas and needs to be replaced. To make it easier for the window tint people (and for a better quality job) I want to remove the vertical vinyl upholstered trim pieces as shown in the attached pictures.
The two on the front windows (first and third pictures) have two visible screws which when removed don't seem to loosen the trim pieces. The two side trim pieces on both port and starboard sides (second picture) have no visible fasteners or apparent ways to remove them.
Does anyone have experience removing these?
Thanks for any advice/guidance anyone may have.

I actually just removed all the tint last week and do see that in most cases there is plenty of room to adhere the new tint in the painted black border areas of the windows though in a few areas the installers will need to be very careful with their razor blades when they complete the job next week.
When I'm at the boat next week I'll test out your hook style track suggestion. Again thanks for the reply!
