    Anyone have a secret to removing this piece without breaking all the clips on the end? On civics and I think a few other honda’s. Its the black molding that runs over the doors to the quarter. I’ve never seen anyone successfully remove them without needing new clips (or urethane:blush: )

    I think we all have trouble with those. No easy way to pry it clean. And the trim piece itself can get distorted and wobbly after install.

    We always just order new clips. I have tried to warm it up with a heat gun thinking it would help , but it didn’t. If clips are not an option I would go the green tape route!:cheer:
