Re: Peeling paint on 850 roof drip molding 850 1995

Just so Scott doesn't end up having to fax the instructions to all of us, here's an excerpt from the factory service manual "Interior/Exterior":

Replacing roof trim

-------------------

Remove rear end piece:

1. Heat with a hot air gun and slide backward.

2. Carefully pry up trim as illustrated. (The illustrustion shows the use of a small spatula to lift the trim off the body)

3. Start from the back. Use a wooden spatula or similar.

Install:

1. rear trim end piece.

2. Trim with end piece on roof. NOTE! Start by pressing the trim into place at guide clip 4. (clip 4 is the one on the roof nearest the windshield)

3. Press the trim into top clip 5 on the A-post so that it is positioned correctly between the roof ad windshield. (This is the top-most clip on the A-pillar).

4. Press down the trim backwards along the roof and downwards onto the A-post.

5. Install the end piece on the roof.
