Supercharged 2 Posted November 29, 2008 Have you removed the screw?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevej 0 Posted November 29, 2008 yeah, but would suspect there is something else retaining it in position. just a bit worried about levering it in case i break it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted November 29, 2008 It sort of moves away from the pillar (I think) but old brittle plastic makes it an arse... depends if you have a new one really... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

colinstubbs 0 Posted November 29, 2008 Triangle bit slides backwards about half an inch but it's a bit of a bastard, take care! They are still available but can't remember a price. The horizontal trim can then be removed, upwards, starting at one end, it can bend because there's a metal insert in it so take it steady and it should be re-useable. Prob easier with the window down. Enjoy :wave: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

colinstubbs 0 Posted November 29, 2008 As I recall the front edge needs 'easing' over the rubber seal to allow it to move rearwards. Have fun! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

colinstubbs 0 Posted December 2, 2008 New one aren't too expensive, and if you've had excessive wind noise it could well be badly fitting 'triangle trim bits'!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
