Hello friends
Im just looking at refitting the front screen pillar trims in my sprint FHC. I think that one edge of the trim needs to fit under the screen rubber and the other edge under the door trim. The question is, what is the technique to use to get the trim under the screen rubber? Are there any dos and donts i must be aware of?
Regards
Bob

You should not need fairy liquid, it would be counter productive in terms of holding it in place until you fit the door seal.
But yes some lever required, my preference is a domestic knife to open a greater lengthy at a time.
A certain amount of subterfuge usually required to ensure SWMBO not aware of dual use!
