How do u remove the Plastic molding?? I've Undone the screw with the door open and removed the crome strip. My manual says to pop it off with a screw drive or something similar but seems pritty tight. Is there any trick on doing it ?? Cheers

Undo all screws including the one at the rearmost of the car. Should then come off. If not there are 2 more clips hanging on behind the grill bit. Get a screwdriver behind the grill bit and lift it up a bit to see where they are. Should be able to figure it out from there

Pretty much guarantee you'll break the clips that hold it in place (the grille bit as wizbiki said) but the clips you can get from any good auto supply place.

Yeh but its amazing how tight those 'clips are i can bearly get it away from the body with out it feeling as if it was going to brake. Does anyone know where u get new moldings from?

Hard to get uncracked, you dont lift them up you slide them back with a bit of muscle, puting them back on is a sh#t job. You have to push down and get the clips lined up for their slots then slide forward, you may get a few little scratches.
