Well, looked everywhere in the the Stude manuals, the only reference I could find to the '57 K-body mouldings along the outside of the front windows (and assume rear-quarter pieces are the same) said to pop them off 'gently' just like the door moulding 'spears".......
So, I did that, and here is the result. Fortunately I dug out the tar/sealer on the front end in time to find the buried screw, and got that out (the rear one was missing already).
Two questions:
1) how SHOULD you remove these, without breaking those little pot-metal tabs?? I don't see you could get at them to pry without breaking them, even if I'd known they were 'different' type of clip than the spears...
2) how (or who?) do you repair these, now that they are broken off? Otherwise perfectly dent free and just need rechroming.
thanks!
