Body Side Molding, Black, Rear Passenger Side

To remove the lower rear door molding, first, the Door Trim Pad Clip Remover (J 38778) should be used to disengage the push-in retainers that are on the center front and center back of the lower door molding. Next, heat the lower edge of the door molding with the help of the Heat Gun (J 25070), in a circular motion, for 30 seconds, maintaining the tool at a distance of about 152 mm (6 in) from the surface. Handle with great care a plastic flat-bladed instrument to desist the adhesive tape from the lower edge of the door molding then pull the edge to the lower edge to release it from the tape, thereafter, pull the top edge up to detach from the top edge. Don't remove the door molding just clean the body panel using oil-free naphtha or alcohol and ensure that there is no adhesive trace and that the surface has dried properly before you put the new rear door lower molding. Before installing, make sure that the 2 retainers at the new molding are fixed, while avoiding touching the exposed adhesive tape or accumulations of dirt from the tape. Heat the door to at least 21°C (70°F) using the Heat Gun (J 25070), then peel off the protective liner on the back side of the molding. Place the retainer into the rear hole first, then align the front retainer second and wet-out the molding so as to achieve maximum adhesion to the door.

Carefully pull the sliding door garnish molding away from the sliding door to release the clips, ensuring not to damage the garnish molding.
