#67173 I think I can get all of the rubber off and not need the body filler. I really hate that stuff.

Actually I think I just need to get new ones. The rubber lip that butts against the glass is all cracked up as well.

I would use a self etching primer. You can get it at autozone or similar places.

You could do it to those too :thumb:

You have to get to the clips from the inside of the door after removing the door panels.

#92525 I did mine with a product called leather luster. The good thing about this stuff is it is rubbery to the touch much like the old trim was. This product stays put and will not dry out or fade. check out the pictues.

#92624 I work in the Air Force, so I can get it on base. I think you can get it at shoe stores like Redwing.
