[DeTomaso] Window Trim

Will, I must confess- that's one of a very few pieces of a Pantera I've never taken off. When I painted our car 20 years ago, I did what most amateurs do- I masked that trim. I'll look into an illustrated article on removing window trim from a '72-1/2 L model (or if you took photos when you did it, we could use them). Thanks for the suggestion. Cheers-JDeryke

I think this needs an article in the POCA magazine with pics.

Mine came off easily without sliding - just minor prying using very small
screw drivers.

The glass and whiskers were already out.  I don't remember where the
screws were, but I removed those first.

They went back on without any drama.
