Dear flyjuanque,

Good p.m. and may this find you well. You definitely do not have to remove the windshield, in order to remove the metal/rubber trim strips.

Removing the trim takes "fingertip sensitivity": there is little maneuvering room, and if force is applied, the mounting clips will be broken and the trim strips bent. These trim strips are not cheap. In short, it takes finesse - not brute force - to do this.

In terms of tools, you will need a metal putty knife, with the edges "blunted"

I can prepare a procedure, if you wish: I'll need to stand in front of my car, to ensure that the steps are accurate. It is too late - and too cold - to do that, in the Eastern Standard Time Zone of the US.

Yours faithfully,

spook

Yours
