    Gday all

    as the title says i'm trying to get the trim off to replace the window motor but i can't get to the ones behind the black cap holding the up most part on.
    any help with this issue would be greatly appreciated.

    Cheers

    Tyson.

    From memory, there are a couple of screws that hold the Pillar Trim where it meets the Door Trim. You can get at them(with a fair amount of difficulty)by levering around the area where they join each other, and carefully unscrewing them. Once you have the bottom section off, you can get the upper piece off when you lower the window.
    It ain't easy, but it can be done.

    if it's the passenger side that won't go down, check you haven't accidentally pressed the "Window lock" button ;)

    ok thanks to the replies i got the trim off i just do as much as i could then bend the top part up so can get to the 2 near the seat belt then took out window mechanism and lowered window.

    so thanks again for the info.

    i always search tech section 1st the one they had under interiors didn't help me as i didn't have my window down at all.

    cheers
