    Default Plastic cover, bottom of rear window pillar

    I've broken one of the plastic covers at the bottom of my rear-window pillar. Hindsight shows that i shouldnt have tried to remove it

    Anyone know if these are available through Holden?
    Ive tried several wreckers, but they dont sell them cause they break when they remove them.
    Or does anyone have a RIGHT-HAND VN one they want to sell to me?!

    i have 4 laying around ...all the VN's in my yard
    aren't they held in by a small clip/nut from in under boot...just reach up to pillar and you can feel what feels like a clip/nut
    i'd imagine they are still available,as i still get in bumpers and grilles...panels etc,etc,so if they are still available,surely these must be

    By the look of it, they arnt held in by a clip, but "click-in" to two holes... i could be wrong though...

    i got it off today... it's just a matter of holding your mouth right...lol...it has two lugs that fit into 2 holes,now i'd say this has been off before,but it may not have,what makes them so hard to get off is....the buggers are sikaflexed on as well
    did yours have black sikaflex on the back of it?also the one i got off has a loose lug on it,but the sikaflex holds them in pretty tight...

    Your a legend!
    There was no black sikaflex behind mind, maybe mine were stock. So you found that there are no clips inside the car holding it in?
    Do you want to PM me your bank details, and i'll whip $10 over to you to get that one to me? Its from the right-hand side isnt it, drivers side?
