KiteVan Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 How do you remove the sliding door bumper guard/molding on the Gen 2 transits. Are there any hidden screws or is it all clips and adhesive? I’ve checked previous posts. The closest thing was about how to remove it on a 2012 which look completely different.

Don Ridley Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 Im not sure what you are describing, but unless you see a screw or plastic knockout covering a screw, all panels snap into place. Removing them takes care and patience to figure out where the secure points are to apply appropriate pressure to avoid breaking anything. A set of plastic trim removal tools are helpful.

KiteVan Posted October 17, 2022 Author Share Posted October 17, 2022 Don, I’m talking about this plastic trim piece on sliding door. I have the passenger version, so I cannot see what is holding it on from inside. I assume it is held on with all clips but have seen trim in past that require removal of interior panel because fasteners attach from inside. Just wanted to make sure before I start prying.

Don Ridley Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 I have never removed these side trim pieces. Attached are instructions from the service manual. The panels are glued on and there are several methods listed to remove them. I would try using fishing line as a cutting wire (piano wire method in the manual). Good luck. panels.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
