The PO put fiberglass rocker panel covers on my car. They look good but they are rivited in and I would like to remove them on occasion to clean out the dirt and crap that collects behind them. Is there an easy way to remove the rivits and covert to screws? are these usually rivited or not?

I was just reading about this, it seems if you remove the 3 screws on the bottom of the rocker panel this will allow you to pull the panel away from the car and clean out the area without having to remove the whole panel.
