[Rovernet] Found the clips, need advice

[Peter King]

Hi Lance,

I used a plastic wedge tool and a plastic spreader to work under the edge and pop the trim of the clips I would slide something like a thin plastic bondo spreader behind your tool to wedge against, so you don’t scuff the paint.  If you can get it behind the trim, you can then safely use a metal trim removal tool available at any parts store. The strips have closed ends, so will not slide from one end. My recollection is that the clips have two prongs on one end and one on the other. I set the trim on the two prongs, and pressed down to snap over the single prong. Less resistance that way.

I would appreciate any advice on how to pry off my old trim w/o gouging the paint AND any recommendations about replacing the trim once the new clips are in place (i.e., should I 'roll' the trim up from the bottom and snap it onto the tops of the clips?  ---- I did this so long ago I can't remember; but I'm thinking it would be pretty hard, and would potentially ruin the paint if I tried to slide them on over the clips from one end???.
