Default RE: window trim

I used a screw driver...it takes a long time but if you carefull pry it up you will see the little clips that are atached to little pegs. Gently pry jsut to the side of the clips and the trin should pop out and leaveth clip behind.

There is a special tool you can get for this job...i've never actually seen one so i don't even know what they look like...i'm sure some one will pipe up and let us know what it is...

to get the windhield out, use a piece of string...start in one of the corners and carefully poke a peice of wax string, or if you are carefull you cna use a piece of mig wire, throguh the tar goo that seals thei window. then slowly work your way around the widow untill its free.

then you get the fun job of scraping all the goo of the window channel...be warned...do not crape off the paint or it will start to rust and cause a leak...if you do scrape the paint off..POR-15 it before you re-goo and reinstall the window.

I took some trim off on my door and broke the little white clips you are talking about. Do you know where I can get new ones? I have checked the dealer and searched all over the internet.....no luck.

any help would be appreciated.
