Trim removal

Post by cosmos »

I think you remove the lower rear side trim there is a screw behind the engine lid pull lever, look for others just below window level if not gently pull away, the window surround is held in with two screws exposed below window level now lower trim removed but check the panel unclips via plastic trim plugs which pull out, there is an awkward one at the rear thats hard to relocate, i found side window trim best refitted in dark with a head torch on and a steel twelve inch ruler to locate the most rearward trim plug in the hole then press home then other plugs are easy. Hope this helps haven't done this for some time.
Good luck.
