Re: [DML] Windshield Trim

[mike.griese@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

You can remove the trim by peeling the outer door seals back to access screws
holding the trim to the underbody.  You might as well keep peeling the door
seals back and taking off the side trim, because once the top is repainted, 
the sides won't match.  I used a standard semigloss black to refinish mine.

To put the door seals back on, use black 3M weatherstrip cement.  Follow
the directions on the tube - yes you really do let it dry on the trim and the
seal before sticking them together.  Make sure the seal is in the right place, 
because this glue has got GRIP.  Get a can of the 3M adhesive remover to 
take the old glue off of the door seals and the windshield trim.
