Default Outer window trim on an '81...

I'm finished applying 2K primer on my '81 , except for two areas where I need to remove trim - the outer door and the back window.

Regarding the door trim - does that just pop off with a screwdriver?

Regarding the back window trim - ya think I could just drive to a car window shop and they'd pop it off?

Thanks for any input!

for the rear glass molding you need a KD tool #2038 Or you could pay a glass shop to remove it for you.

Not sure about 81 but the earlier C3s had the outer door molding attached with phillips headed screws right thru the felt. You have to search a little to find them.

Thanks for the reply. Got the stubborn trim off with the help of my Dremel tool... Gonna install the new trim tomorrow.
