Default Removing front turn signal lights & side moulding

What's the trick(s) to removing the front lower turn signal light housings? I see no screws or clips to allow removal. And is the body side moulding "stuck on" or are there pins that go through the door skins that holds them on. Thanks,

well on your 79 accord you should be able to see the screws holding in the bumper lights

My bad, I thought everyone knew I had a 91 Accord EX! Both of the lower front turn signal light housings rattle due to something being loose, thought if I could remove them, I'd find the problem. Also, I'm painting the car and want to remove the mouldings to get a better job in those problem sanding areas.

I believe the access/mounting screws are behind the bumper for that one...

if you are standing in the center of the bumper look into the sides of the turn lite ,there is a funnel type 'wellor tube' in the side of the light assy,and beyond that is phillips head screw.#6 and 22 in the attached picture.
there are clips that hold the mouding in place on the doors, you can remove the interiordoor panels and find them in the door, hard to keep from breaking them though as you try to get them to release.
