How to remove this rivet?

How do you remove this center pin rivet from the door panel? The vinyl has pulled away from the leading edge and I want to glue it back down?
I know how to remove the window crank and the door latch. Are there any other tricks to pull the panel off?
Thanks.

It looks like a push pin. Push the pin in the center and the whole thing will pull out.
I use a Phillips screwdriver to push with.

After its out you push the pin towards the front, not all the way, so you can reset once it's back in place.

X2 you push in the center "pin" of this connector about 1/8-1/4" deep, it clicks IIRC -- and then you can pull out the whole part. They're quite a genius design I think.
