^ Avoid damaging the paint by applying heat gradually to the retainer.
^ Use a plastic scraper to loosen the retainer from the body and scrape oft any adhesive on the vehicle.
^ Be careful not to scratch the body.
^ Use pliers to gently pull the retainer from the body.
2. Clean the bonding surface on the body with a shop towel dampened with 3M General Purpose Adhesive Cleaner or isopropyl alcohol. After cleaning, keep oil, grease, and water from getting on the bonding surface.
3. Test fit the retainers in their proper mounting position. The paint color should be different where the clip was removed.
