Window belt molding replacement question

I had a little mishap with a my passenger side rear window belt molding when I was buffing my car, how do I replace this part. Does anyone know how to pop the old part off?

Unless one of your fellow 6G TLX forum members provides a FSM removal process, you may have to subscribe to something like AlldataDiy to get the exact process for your car?
The best I could find, for such a late model, is the video below for a 2018-2019 Accord; however, I have no clue as to its applicability to the 2021 TLX-S.
Good Luck

So, since window tint is usually applied on the inside of the window, are you referring to the inner weather strip (purple arrow) of the front & rear doors...


or did they actually 'cut' the exterior moldings the OP is talking about???
