On how to remove the door exterior trim pieces and the interior trim pieces, ie the bit round the windows. I ask cos today I bought 4 doors for £275, fronts still with working electric mirrors and module, rears with the sun blinds fitted. Paint is in poor condition but trim is fine, hence I want to transfer to my doors. Will also strip out door handles and carriers, speakers and anything else that might be worth keeping as a spare.

Followed the instructions "pull blind towards rear and lever out with small screwdriver" Not working for me, anyjone actually had any experience of doing this.
