Default Windshield molding

Whats the trick to removing the molding on both sides of the windshield ? Do they just pop off ? Clips ? Want to replace the upper strip thats cracked. Pics would rock !!

I'll try to remember to look at my FSM after work today to see what it says. I've never taken those moldings off.

However, I have replaced the upper molding, and did so without having to touch those side moldings. It's flexible enough that you can just tuck the ends in (under the side moldings) as you get the upper molding into position.

The wiper arms must come off. And I believe there is a 10mm nut on either side as well. Def on on the driver side tucked in under the fender.

Philistine might chime in with the perfect answer. You have to take it off to install the PMC master.

for what it's worth, the driver's side windshield cowel panel can be removed without pulling the driver's side wiper arm.
