Default Need help with rear window trim removal

Anyone know if I need to pull the window frame to get this piece out. I was able to remove the bolt that maybe holding it from the inside but the piece would not come off.

Default Piece of cake....

I just replaced the passenger side on my 01.5. The trick is to push it straight down until it kind of pops loose. Then carefully wiggle it free. Once its loose it will pull out and up. To answer your question, the window frame does not need to be removed.

Default Loosened the window frame

It is easier to do when I took out the top two bolts and lossend the bottom two and the frame was able to shift inward and the piece easily slid down and out.
