Garnish Moulding removal '41 #266843 01/07/13 12:39 PM

The screws are removed, but the rubber trim around the side vent window is preventing me from lifting the moulding upwards. The book says something about removing the "safety locking knob" but not how to. But the rubber would still be in the way. Would the rubber have been more pliable 70 years ago? Will I be able to remove this moulding without ruining the old rubber?
