According to the workshop manual, they are just snap-in plastic clips. Remove the beige panel first (the one above the Subaru logo), then remove the Subaru logo panel after that.

There's five clips on the upper panel and four in the Subaru logo panel.
I was going to procrastinate, but I put it off...

If you are talking about the grey trim that leads into the kick panel (ie not the one that has the subaru printed on it but the inner most one) then its a few clips.

They require quite a bit of force to get them out though. Don't worry about breaking it. Just pull. Once you get the first one out, you will find the rest easy.

Yep, literally just get you fingers under the rubber and pull.

That's what she said.

Get as close to the clips as possible to avoid damaging the trim.
