OK I finally bought the new door belt pieces and the outer dew wipe piece. Can anyone tell me how to get the door belt piece off? Its a 93 vert...

Open the door. At the rear end of the belt molding, look underneath on the inside of the door and you'll find a screw. Take out the screw and the molding will slide rearward about an inch and come off.
 
Yup got it... Thanks.

I havent looked at the vert trim molding (plastic pieces that go from the quarter windows all the way around the back and to the other side) anyone know how to get these off?

Finally the windshield trim on the vert, the outer pillars and the top outside piece that is black plastic, how do you remove those?
 
The rear trim pieces are held in by screws underneath them. If you drop the top down and allow the top to have some slack you can feel the screws, there are prob about five on each piece. It also doesn't go alway the way around. It stops under the hinge covers I can't remember if you have to remove the hinges covers or not but if you do they are also held down with two screws from underneath.
 
For the top molding on the windshield, just remove the visible screws. The A-pillar moldings are also held on with screws, but they're buried under the weatherstripping. Just pull it back.
