Has anyone had any luck removing the plastic woodgrain trim on gran coupe ?
Would like to have ours hydrodip. With a differant color/shade and woodgrain then what was on it
Original. Will prob have the console plate done same time so all will match....
Any tips on getting it off without breaking it?

there are little metal tabs on the back side of the trim that go thru holes drilled in the panels.
you have to bend the tabs straight then push them thru the panel to release the molding. .
it's easy to break the tabs so be careful when bending them straight. the moldings have metal on the inside that bends easily also.
take your time and they can be removed if you proceed carefully.

Honestly, the biggest pain was finding someone who would buy all of the interior stuff that I ripped out. I found a place that bought and sold cargo and passenger vans. They bought all my plastic trim, the carpet, the seatbelts, and the headliner for $300.
