How do you do it without breaking them?

VERY CAREFULLY! I use a flathead screwdriver and gently pry the tabs away from the rail.

From the side facing outward, or inward?

There are tabs on both sides,but I think it's easier to start on the inside.

Alright. Thanks!

Wish me luck, I think I will try it this evening.

The covers are shorter on the inside

The way I do it is to stand on each side, slip my fingernails carefully under the inboard edges, and carefully "lift" it up and out...
