side molding

[importdemon]

does anyone know hot to remove the side molding, does it pop off or do u have to remove the inner door panel to get at it

[JDMCBDriver]

It should come off... I heard if you take your door panels off its alot easier to get off the door then pulling it off....

thanx, im goin for black molding on a gunmetal grey car

i stuck a flat head screw driver behind it and pryed it up a little bit and then just pulled as hard as i could without damaging the body untill it popped off...but beware that u will break the plastic clips behind it and if u ever want to re install you can get them at your local honda dealership for about $10 a bag...

hmm, question..

Im thinking about removing my side moulding , basically just so it doesnt look as bad with my body kit.. but not shaving the line so it still has the line in the body.. any comments would be appreciated
thanks

The moldings have little plastic clips on the back(they will break easy). The easiest way is to get the moldings off is to pry the first clip off with a screwdriver and then the other clips slide off, (slide the molding peice) either to the right or left, i cant remember which way. Or if that dont work, take the door panel off, then inner plastic linner, and squeeze the clip out.--jay

It's easy to just say that. I have been trying for over and hour. With whatever I could find. It simply wont come off.

they are held by 2 strips of double sided tape, 3 clips, and a nut. the rear door trim is minus the nut. you will probably bend them when you remove them, so be prepared to buy new ones. later.

I would def take the door panels off. It is easy enough to do and you won't have to worry about breaking clips. Everyone hates broken clips.
