Door trim clips

Hi,

The bottom trim on the outside of the passenger front door has worked loose on my D3 - does anybody know which clips I'll need to buy to replace and refit it, and whether I'll need a trim removal tool to do the job properly?

thanks

These are the normal ones

But you want 2 of these at each end of the front doors, to stop them coming off.

No trim tool required.

The tool looks good - have you had a chance to use it yet? - there's plenty of positive reviews so I'm guessing you're pleased with it?

I've had a pair of those pliers for years. Be careful with the bottom jaw, I sanded the edges of mine round, as I found that they can mark paintwork when you try and insert them in between the metalwork and trim

bought it mainly to get the fixings out whilst removing the inner wheel arch , seeing there's so many of them , was also brilliant when i had to remove a door card

am indeed pleased with it and makes life easier, handy tool to have ,

well that's my excuse Whistle
