How to remove the clips from the door panel

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Car door

In this video, we can see the problem of clips that have not detached from the side panel of the door: one solution could be to remove them with pliers, but it could be easy to break them and reordering them as a replacement could be very expensive. The youtuber suggests removing them with a slightly thick string or wire. Using a small screwdriver or a thin plastic spatula (recommended tool because it will not scratch the bodywork), we lift one side of the clip and then pass the wire inside, cross it underneath and pull it from the sides, pulling simultaneously towards us. This way the clip will come out without breaking and we will not tire ourselves too much.
