Hi everyone! I'm trying to install a new set of outer door fuzzies I recently purchased from 914rubber but I'm having a hell of a time removing the old fuzzy. I was able to locate and remove the 3 screws that hold the original fuzzy in place but it's been difficult trying to get the old decrepit fuzzy strip out of the retaining bracket?

Does this bracket come off somehow because it's a pain trying to pick and break up the old strip through the top of the door. Even if I was able to break up most of the old strip, the top metal portion would still be lodged within the top of the bracket.
