Segments "cannot" be removed from the exterior, in one piece.
The bottom of each segment is riveted to a frame that you cannot see, because it's covered up be the window frame.
The top part of each segment, is riveted to a main bow, that's is covered up by the roof sheet, window sheets.
Those rivets are "blind" or flush rivets.
They can however, be sheared off, once you can get under neath each segment.
Then you only have to contend with the vulkem sealer, that's also an obstacle. However, it too, can be sheared, as long as you use a "long" putty knife.
