not very difficult. used a hair dryer to heat the clue up and then just pulled slowly inch by inch. can also use some dental floss and cut through the glue. i just think it makes the car look alot smoother. i debadged it and removed the RS package it on it and the side molding. once the molding is off its just tedious getting the rest of the glue off, i heated it up and then rubbed it off with my finger.

the glue seemed to come off better when its frozen, ( its was in the 20's outside ) my side moldings just came off.. and the glue held on to the moldings, not the door..

No such luck for me, never gets colder than 60's here, just trying to learn the best way to remove the moldings. The hair dryer way seems best right now, I was able to get a tool from Checkers for just such a task, but wanted to research before I attempt.
