DIY: Roof trim rail removal E9x

chrisl91 · 05-22-2020, 04:18 PM

I'm not sure if this is allowed but someone commented on my video that I ought to post this here.

I made a short video of how to remove the roof trim rails on a E9x without breaking the $8-a-piece clips.

I hope it helps.

chrisl91 I can not for the life of me get mine to snap back in. Why would that be? Only the back (black) clip snaps in with easy. I have pressed down with my entire body weight to get the other clips to snap in but 0 luck. You make it look so simple and effortless in your video. What am I doing wrong?

All my clips are good. Got brand new ones after breaking a couple when taking them off for painting.
