Hello all,

Can someone please tell me how do I remove the black plastic trim on the doors and dash (the trim underneath the wood trim, it's a plastic piece).

Thanks!

On the dash, the plastic trim below the wood panels can simply be pryed out. Use a plastic, blunt tool (something that is not sharp). Slide your tool behind the plastic trim at the end of the dashboard and pull straight out towards the seats. It should pop out relatively easily. Once you have the side going you can easily figure out the rest.

For the doors, the plastic piece and the wood trim is ONE and hence, the whole thing comes out together. Same technique, but start at the front of the door and pull out. It requires a bit more prying effort than the dash piece, but it will snap out.

And don't be too scared about breaking the wood (within reason). They are mounted on some very strong, stiff aluminum backings that take the stress loads.
