Right... how do you get these things off? Removed the screw (rear offside), tried lifting upwards with those plastic levers used for trim and dashboard removal etc, no joy, didn't want to come off at all.
Don't want to scratch bodywork etc. Nothing on YouTube. Anyone can help?

Once the screw or screws are out, they just pull up.

Once the tension is released by dropping the window an inch or so they should lift up by hand. Tools should not be required.

Is it the bodywork that is rusting and bubbling or is it the trim. If it's the body how do you treat the rust?

johnny585, likehood of bodywork rusting is remote due to makeup of doors and general good quality of paint, the rust is inside the rubber trim or you are really one unlucky sod.

I have heard rust can happen if the door trim isn't replaced when it starts to bubble.
