A number of people were asking about removal of the MX-5 NC sill trim panels and about how to fix broken plastic parts, so its all covered in this video.
You may run into issues if yours is an earlier model NC. I found out that they have clip fixing on the reverse of the mouldings that face both left and right rather than all the same way! That's fine when you're fitting one new at the factory but not so helpful when it comes to removing. One guy I know followed my plastic welding tips and actually cut the tops off some of his wrong way facing ones, turned them 180º and plastic welded them back on. Bit of a pain but cheaper than sourcing two newer type mouldings.

Thanks for posting this video. I have attempted to get my side skirts off multiple times but gave up as I felt I was going to break them. This video will definitely help when I try again.

Thanks for the video. I have an 07 and was trying to remove mine but I fear not all of mine are facing the same way. I saw another video where they were not.. good grief lol. I am just wanting to check for rust.

I have a 2008 NC MX-5. A mechanic used a jack on each side my car and somehow he must have snapped the clips on my Sills. So now they stick out and are not flush with the door. I'm hoping he did not damage my Welds when he jacked it up. I'm losing sleep over this. Car was nearly perfect the day before yesterday.

Sounds like a bit of a ham-fisted mechanic! The jacking points are clearly marked on the sills near to the ends - and its best when jacking to have a rubber puck with a slot in it that the sill welded join slots into. Similarly you can get rubber pads with slots in to fit onto jackstands. I'd be having words about some form of recompense if you can.

Sorry for the delayed reply - vehicleclips.co.uk - they do in fact do the sill moulding clips as a complete replacement kit but not listed under the parts available for MX5 NC - its order details are as follows: Set of Plastic Trim Clips / Fittings for Mazda 3 Side Skirts (BL 2008-13) SKU: FCX-9011x00002 - Pack of 2 Each pack contains a full set of replacement clips which include the side ones, underneath ones and the two that go one at each end.
