I just did my outside strips... you need to pull off the door panels. For the outer strips.. you need a slotted screwdriver to pull off the 3 rivets and hammer down on it till it breaks off. There may be some parts of it stuck in the holes where you will need to drill it out. Just be careful not to drill too far or you will put a hole in the door. Other than that just snap the new ones in place. As for the inner strip.. it is attached to the door panel itself. Mine were stapled on and I couldnt get a staple gun to puncture through it so I went ahead and use some strong glue to hold it in place. We will see how it goes once I get everything back together again.
