If the plastic strip needs to come off - that's not as easy as its melted plastic to fix it.
I bought a new door card when I ripped the leather (oops!) but bought the wrong one off ebay without the light strip. Drilled the old one out of the broken door card and managed to screw it on the new one after cutting holes in the leather to get the fixings through. Used screws and washers to secure it - I don't suggest you do this!
Thank you. I want to remove it to paint it gloss black to match my interior trim.
