    I tried searching the archives but i found nothing on how to remove this trim,and i cant figure out how to:hmmm:

    I removed the door panel and felt like there are some tabs, but i dont want to try to take it off and ruin it.I learned that the hardway.:(

    How do you do it?

    If you are pointing at the rubber "squeegee" that goes up against the window, you can slide a small putty knife between it and the door metal and pry it toward the window. The window will probably have to be taken out first, maybe just run all the way down. There are about 6-8 "pop"s before the entire thing comes out.

    If you are talking about the metal trim along the edge: There is a fastener inside the door toward the back or the trim. There is a phillips screw at the front of the trim...but it is not inside the door. The rest of the trim just pops off of the plastic tabs.
