O.K.
I have 3 clips. I assume that the clip part that hooks onto the flange goes in the bottom of the inner rail of the chrome bar. Do you put the clips in the chrome trim and slide the chrome trim on the flange? Do you place the clips on the roof and push on the chrome trim? I have tried and can't get anywhere. If I try and slide the chrome trim with the clips in the chrome trim piece on the roof the clip breaks. If I put the clips on first and then pop the chrome trim piece on the clips pop off the flange. signed, frustrated like h*** Buck By the way, Thanks for all the help. |

Stick a 1/2" wide flat metal piece like a small wood chisel into one end or the other. Work with the end that appears to give more than the other. As you pull the piece will want to arch up or down as it is not straight-but bow shaped. Let it bow down as you pull. This seemed to help. It will scare Hell out of you when it gives and one of the clips will shoot off into a Black Hole somewhere. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
EDIT: LOL, just re-read title. ON not OFF. Take Rob-O's advice. |
