Attached is a close up picture of my rear trim. This is midway from the center on the driver’s side. I am not familiar with the clips and obviously want to avoid damage. Can someone walk me through how this is installed and how it would unclip? Per the installation diagram looks like there are roughly 8 across along the bottom channel—is that correct?

My guess is that I would need to unclip from the middle and then re clip? I don’t guess there is a way to re-clip just this particular one?

Let me know your thoughts.

 

Are these the clips?

Anyone?

 

I don't have a convertible, but the link you have are the correct clips. I believe there is one or two screws that holds the lower trim on either side of the lower right/left of the window. Then start at the ends to slowly leverage the trim off and work your way to the center. Don't gust grab on to the trim and pull up, got to make sure you don't bend the trim as you pull off. Only lever the trim off at each clip location and the trim should snap off. There are tools you can buy, but I don't know the trick on a tool to use. Just need to protect the paint along the edge of your leverage point and make sure what ever you use does not make indentations on the trim with the tool. Once you get one, you get the hang on how much force you need. Go on line too. You may not find the removal of convertible trim, but it's all the basic process in removal. Hope this helps or encourages others the chime in.
