how the hell do you get this out?

[Car Addict]

I will try my best to explain this. on the inside of the car, near the door, it is kind of holding the carpet down, there is a black plastic strip. How the hell do you get that out? I have been trying to just pull it straight off figuring it is like the rest of bmw's trim work (pull the hell out of it.) but this is not budging. i tried to find it on real oem but to no avail; i will try to get a picture of it.

Any help?

it's on with clips, pry one side and unclip one at a time... gently

WOW i feel like a moron :oops::oops::oops::oops::oops: thanx APTYP. i guess i am going to have to buy some of those since a few broke off. thanx anyways

[Aptyp]

yeah, i had some break off, there are entirely too many clips

And that plastic is brittle as hell, so most likely it will break. New trim isn't expensive though and looks nice!

they almost always break

I broke one of mine the other day.....and cracked the other....good times. Easy does it.

Yeah just be careful. I actually only have 2-3 clips on my 4 door now for each one. holds fine and makes it 10x easier to pull up when needed
