Ok then, I give up - how on earth do you remove the interior sill trim without breaking them?! :x :wink:

think brian moore had a good tip ,they will break most probably so edge one end up and slide trim forwards or backwards an inch .this will aid the reassembly in that the normal clip area will not be broken if the guide breaks u got me?

I'm struggling with this too. I've managed to get the outer trim off - does the inner have similar clips and are they in the vertical or horizontal plane? Does the trim simply pull up and off the sill?

remove the front speaker panels
pull out the rubber door thingies from under the trims. Then you can slide the trims forward as far as possible. Then pull, normally they woun't break if you do it this way.
