    Default removing door moulds

    hey guys

    i want to replace my stock black exterior door moulds to the calais chrome moulds, i have all the pieces.
    the thing that im struggling with is the door strips, i can remove the over the door pieces and the QTR window piece but i dont know how to get those strips off on the bottom of the doors.

    i know it would have been covered b4 but i couldnt find it.
    thanx guys

    hey mate, you got them home. are you happy with them?....

    For the front, you need to take your front door vents off,

    then take the Black peice that has the screws to the Side veiw mirror's (remove The mirror's)

    then all you need to do is wind the window all the waydown and you will see little "tabs" that are holding the Black strip onto the door (just pry it up evenly) use a flat head screwdriver.

    check the ends of the doors for screws the back one have em but i dunno bnout fronts
    after undoing the screws holding it on the back doors you can nearlly pull them off

    sorry if this makes no sense.

    there should be a screw at each end (on the inside of the door) one might be covered by rubber oly just though you should still see it......then pry it off like the front ones...did you get fronties off??......
