07 S550: Rear door trim flew off

Post by kevm14 »

Heard this happen yesterday on the bridge. Sucks. Good news: it's only $72 on the dealer website ($120 at parts counter) and they stock it. It's just double sided tape so the hardest part will be cleaning off the old stuff. Ironically I had to do this on my Roadmaster, too....

The only catch is they do recommend ordering the front door and front fender trim because the part was updated and it may not match. So whether it is ugly enough to want to spend more, we will have to see. But at least I'll have the trim in place for my trip.

Went through the new touch carwash last week. It was....kinda violent. And I lost the left rear door trim piece. Sigh.

Front pass door chrome strip is also getting loose so I should get one of those, too.

Done. This glue is no fun to remove. First pass using heat and a plastic scraper (I only have a trim removal tool). Then brake cleaner and elbow grease. Finish with IPA to prep the surface for the new piece.
