[Shotimes] Window trim info needed

[Kevin & Cheryl Airth]

Russ:
 Were you able to remove the old one intact? Did you replace it with a new
part? I destroyed 3 different cars in the junk yard attempting to pull it
out undamaged. I finally just gave up and decided that I would likely cause
more damage to my car than good. The Helm manual pretty much backed up what
I ran into. Any tips because I DON'T like finding any repair that I can't
do!
Thanks.
