Pull the door seal off at the point it covers the metal clips attached to the rear of the trim, remove the fir tree button fixing at the rear of the panel.

Now gently ease the bottom out enough to get your fingers behind, then give it a sharp tug towrd the centre of the car, this will disengage the clip securing it to the A pillar.

Once you have done this, pull the bonnet release, and thread the trim over the bonnet catch.

Refitting is a reversal of removal

Have fun
