gamellott Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Now that I finally have a place and some time to do some minor rehab on the old girl, I was wondering if anyone knows how to remove/replace the plastic trim on the trailing edge of the rear side windows. There seems to be plenty of play, but they don't seem to want to come out. I mean, I can simply mask the crap out of it and paint it, but I would rather try to remove, clean and paint... An FSM probably has this procedure in it... OTOH, Like all of the rest of the plastic, if I touch it with any force, it's probably going to break... Anyway, Thanks in advance!!

Slartibartfast Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 I am impressed that you got it out in one piece! I had a go at one of mine a while back and had enough trouble with it that I painted the other one in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamellott Posted November 29, 2022 Author Share Posted November 29, 2022 Mkay!! Now that I know... Hopefully I can get them out without breaking them. I suppose I should wait until the temperature gets above freezing outside though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
