those look like pop rivets to me. I would go ahead and drill them out.

you'll need to know the hole size to choose the correct insert+fastener. You might try drilling out one rivet first.

If it wasnt so late I would go out and find the said clip then open my door
and show you all that on my van.... the door panel attaches to the door
its self with clips those clips are POP RIVETED to the door panel
you exert some pressure on the panel and the door panel will
pop off NOW provided that you take that handle assembly off too...

apologies ... I got distracted with all the rivet gun talk.
It makes sense. My passenger van looks a bit different, but yes, a lot of the trim is held by various types of clips, and will come off with a quick, firm tug. Unfortunately, they only survive removal once or twice before they break.
