How to remove Trim 120-130

Anything that is straight, pull out straight, like the roof trim on the wagon.
The windshield trim you loosen up with a putty knife and some rubber lube
or cream handcleaner and pull it out to the sides of the car.
Curved pieces of trim you gotta pull off as gingerly as possible, avoiding
any more bending than necessary. The raingutter trim, if not kinked,
when reinstalled looks fairly good.

BTW it is very soft aluminum, so go as easy as possible on it.

Chrome trim along the sides of the car is held by wire spring clips.
They probably have caulking on the inside which you need to remove
to get the clips to pop out.
