Door Molding

Replacement

1. Completely clean the sheet metal surface around the molding using isopropyl alcohol and a soft clean cloth.

2. Remove the molding one piece at a time (if possible) to assist in replacement molding alignment.

^ Use a nylon wedge such as a fiber stick.

^ Position wedge between the molding and the sheet metal and pull molding away using steady tension.

^ When several inches of molding are free, grasp the molding and pull slowly toward the front of the vehicle.

CAUTION:
Take care not to damage the vehicle paint or sheet metal. Repair any damage prior to installing new molding.

3. Remove adhesive residue from the painted surface using isopropyl alcohol and a soft clean cloth.

NOTE:
Residue may be difficult to see and may still be present after removal attempts. To confirm that the residue is completely removed, use your hand to gently feel the area around where the residue was present.

4. Use clean water and rinse the area where the molding will attach.

5. Remove adhesive backing from new molding.

6. Align new molding evenly (fender, door or quarter panel) to match the opposite side of the vehicle.





CAUTION:
Confirm that the molding is aligned correctly prior to installing. The molding can not be removed and repositioned.

7. Press on the molding to ensure proper adherence.
