Take care when you are removing the panel as to not scratch or deform your door panel, once you have your old panel off and removed it’s time to install the new one.
Now gently rest your window trim back onto your door, depress down slightly until you feel the grooves in the door slide into the window trim.
Then replace the pin in the door jam. You are now ready to sport your new and clean looking window trim! Enjoy!!
