Drip rails -- removal?

[SteveInOakland]

Any special techniques or tricks for getting these off without twisting them up? (What holds them on, just a crimp?)

Also, on the door, exterior, chrome molding running width of door at bottom of window (holds the rubber squeegee, I believe) -- same question.

Thanks,

Steve.

They just pop on.

To get them off, start at the back of the car and sort of twist the bottom edge away from the car, while pulling gently on it, to pop the end off, then work it off along the curve to the bend at the A pillar.

Then the part on the a pillar should come off in one go as you angle the trim away from the car.

The door trim part is just clipped on. Wind the window down and start at the back of the door, just pull it straight up.

Hope I'm not too late on this one. The belt moulding is what your referring to at the top edge of the door, bottom edge of the glass. Start removing it at the mirror end of the door first and you probably won't get near the glass before the rest of it just popps off. This way you'll avoid getting any prying tool too close to the glass and risk any breakage.
