Title: Carpet and door seal trim
Post by: Gazpacholulu on January 23, 2026, 03:36:43 PM
Usual problem of swimming pool in the footwell. Not the usual door card problem but it looks af if the door aperture seal has finally given up. Came to replace it and there is a plastic trim, with one screw, that covers the seal and carpet at the bottom of the door aperture. Removed the screw and the trim appears fixed. Not wanting to force it, I looked up the parts lists diagrams but could not find this part on any of them. Just wondered if there is a knack to there removal or is it just brute force and ignorance?

Take a brave pill and if possible, use one of those plastic trim removal tools.
Worst case, you break some of the little white clips that hold it down and you can buy more of them.
