    the moulds on the doors themselves have a screw at the rearmost end of the door, which on the front doors is accessed pretty easily...

    the rear doors require the inside seal to be removed/lifted for access (screw is under the 1/4 window if i remember correctly - though if I'm wrong someone will point it out for sure!)

    then, the gutter mould is removed by undoing the small screws then gently pulling it away from the car (they have a foam tape on there which will catch it to a degree)

    the rear 1/4 windows can then be removed by taking the rear seat out, removing the parcel shelf and then the plastic surrounds around the window and undoing the 5 plastic nuts holding the window in....

    should be about a 1-1.5 hour job if you take it easy....
