Rear window trim removal

Postby moriarty » Sun Jul 21, 2013 4:28 pm

Hi
Does anyone know how to remove the metal trim strip at the base of the rear window? (outside). It seems to be covered in some sort of rubberised paint which is flaking off. just want to tidy it up. Is it part of the rubber seal or is the metal bit separate? It looks as though it's held on with plastic clips but I don't want to risk b****ring it up altogether, any advice anyone?

it will just pop off if you just gently remove it from one side then it should just pull out .. i found it easy enough... and painted it black as mine was fading and going silver aswell
