Monza B Pillar exterior plastic "vents"

Postby TTait » Fri Oct 08, 2021 4:31 am

I need remove the black and silver plastic vents that sit just forward of the rear side windows to refinish them. The ones on the doors are held in place with screws, but it looks like these larger ones use adhesive?

Any tips?

The 75's have studs with nuts
that are behind the interior plastic panels. Later ones have exposed screws on the front edge.

Thanks Clyde. Glad they made it easier in subsequent years - but I've got the 75!

Can the exposed screws be covered?
