Hi--

Pull the carpet back from the edge where it is encapulated by the trim strip. The screws are underneath the carpet.

Also, these are aluminum and respond well to a bit of FLITZ polish.

Just priced them from the Classic Center.  If I remember they were $150 - 200 per side.

Glad to know how to remove them.
