Door Trim Removal
July 14, 2012
My wife noticed the other day why my left rear door "sticks" when it's opening. The cause: the door trim is separating from the door and catching on the driver's door when opening. I had a few options to fix it.
After reviewing my options of 1) Cut the door trim so it doesn't catch, 2) Getting new adhesive and reseating the trim on the door, or 3) Remove the trim altogether, I opted for option 3 because my rock sliders would protect my doors from parking lot dings. It's was an easy job - pull the trim and adhesive off.
There really isn't an interesting enough processes to warrant pictures of my pealing the door trim and adhesive off with my bare hands, so here are some posing shots of the results.
