I have removed the floor trim next the door on the passenger side to dry out the floor carpeting (lifted it up and stuck a high speed fan to blow air under the foam insulation). It looks like it had been done before as several of the tabs that hold it down were broken off. I need to dry out the driver side. Is there any tricks to taking off the floor trim without breaking the tabs? I searched, but could not find any tricks to this.

Any help is appreciated.

Pull straight up firmly and quickly. The tabs and their metal clips are more robust than you would think.

Those OEM trim tabs were harder to take off than I imagined as well. After several careful attempts, I gave up and chopped the head off. I've since then replaced those tabs with aftermarket ones that's easier to take off.
