Blue88Comanche Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 How do i put remove and put the rain guard trim on above the doors? I ask because the driver's side rain guard trim had been missing for the past 10 years or so, and my grandfather found it in his garage the other day.. needless to say i want to put it on and repaint the other one to match.

Eagle Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 I thought the trim was stainless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue88Comanche Posted September 5, 2012 Author Share Posted September 5, 2012 the part that my grandfather gave me was black, if it was once stainless all that trim was repainted at some point which may be why the black paint is chipping off all the other metal trim on my MJ..

KYMJ Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 There are clips holding them on and some kind of glue. I pryed them off with a small screwdriver. I've removed mine because I'm painting my truck. The glue dries hard, I had to remove it today. My last truck had one removed by a tree limb and I just popped it on with the clips. I don't recall the glue residue on my other truck. Might have been used later, since I discovered prior body work on the roof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ParadiseMJ Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Theres' been no glue on any of my gutter trim. I just pinched them with my fingers and was able to roll them right off the entire length of my XJ. The MJ is much easier...there are only three clips. You have to get the clips on the metal just right...it helped me to open up the clips just a tad with a screwdriver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
