I would love to remove my side moldings but not sure how. Would a blowdryer and fishing line work the best?

Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Blow dryer and dental floss works well

i just looped the handle of a plastic bag undermine untill i could get my hands on it and then pulled slowly. No problems. It was a hot day though....

Open your back door while closing the front one - apparently it's a pretty closely engineered fitment...

and if you have any glue residue - get some 3M Adhesive and Wax Remover. It 'tis the best!

Or if you have wd40 around, it works for adhesive removal.

I actually used cotton string on a hot day. I then used "goo gone" I tried dental floss, but it only survived a few "saws" and then would snap. The line worked well, but actually will cut through the rubber if your not careful!

Fingernail, and some quality cleaner-wax on the residue...Perfect!

Just get a good grip a pull off. make sure you heat up the molding tape first. If you pull to hard that tape will rip your paint off.
