Hi all p38 2.5dse 1996, in need of help again. Can anyone explain how to get the weather strip(the bit between window and glass) off of the rear doors please. I found the screw near the drivers door but can't seem to get the thing to move and don't want to damage it as they are £££ to replace.
Cheers
Steve

There is a screw on either end of the strip, once they're out the strip lifts up and off..

Can be very stiff.

Found the one on the drivers door pillar side but couldn't find one the other end, unless it inside behind door card.

Are we talking about the black trim that runs the length of the glass?

So got it off, it was just stuck. Some pics before and after, not finished yet but looking good so far.
