Auto body repair & detailing: 94 grand am, grand am gt, plastic molding


Question
I'm doing some minor rust repair on my 94 grand am gt and I need to take off the plastic molding on the outside of the drivers side door to get at some of the damage.  I know there are clips on the inside that hold it on but i have no idea how to get it to pop off.  Any ideas?

Answer
Hello! Remove the 2 screws in the door jamb, and then push up on the bottom of the molding. Then, carefully pull outward on the op of the molding by inserting a putty knife behind it. It should pop right off of there. Proceed carefully so you don't break clips. Bill
