1936 hood trim removal question

Hello, I have visited this forum many times but this is my first post and certainly not my last. I am restoring a 36 Roadmaster and I need to remove the stainless trim that runs the length of the hood on each side just above the long hood hinge. Does anyone know how these come off? The hinge is on the backside and I can't see anything because of the hinge. Thank you very much and I look forward to more involvement on this forum.

Hi,
to my knowledge the mouldings use regular moulding clips that are pressed through holes in the hood as well as the body. I used clips that had a rubber sealing inside the V-shaped spring to seal from possible water entering through the holes on the body. This had worked out very good for the last 26 years after the finishing of the restoration.

Thank you. I need to take a closer look and see if I can spot the clips from the back side.
