Default Roadster: How to remove rollbar trim?

Hey guys. I can't seem to find/figure out how to remove the silver trim covering the rollbars. Anyone know?

Because I really, really dislike the silver. I'm trying to wrap them but I keep f'ing it up because I can't hold the heat and stretch the vinyl at the same time. I want to take the trim pieces off, wrap them, then put back on.




Wrapping in black but it's too hard for me to do (f'd up edges)




Do you know how they come off?

I don't own a TT but I would like to help you out. Here are two parts diagrams that might be of help to you.

Here is the parts diagram for the Trim Roof Box. It looks like it needs to be removed so you can remove the Roll Bar Trim.

Thanks plat. I still couldn't figure it out. I gave up out of frustration and took it to a car wrapping place and they did a nice job:

Now you will have to wrap the fuel door as well, as that is the same alu-matched color.
