I want to take off all the plastic trim, sill covers, wing cladding and the bit on the rear wheel arch. I was looking through one of the jacking point covers and there appears to be some corrosion that needs looking at. I can see the sill covers are held underneath and at the wheel arch by small acme screws, but how about the other bits do they just pull off. I don't want to force them in case they are held from behind. |

they are held on with plastic clip.you have to be very carefull pulling them off.some of the clips are certain to brake as they get brittle with age. |

on each door there 2 screws on the edge of the door,remove them and the panels just pull off,as been said ,some clips probably will break with age...........................the sill covers are kept on with 8mm bolts underneath, and if you open the door and see the rubber seal,pull that out and there are some bolts behind there too |
