Just a quick follow up to say thanks to everyone regarding the advice for removing and reinstalling the trim on the P6.   All complete without too many expletives!!!

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???.
