How to take this plastic piece off?
« on: March 26, 2005 - 03:12:42 PM »
Getting ready to media blast the car and can not figure out how to get this plastic piece off?  Not sure if it glued on or what.  I am sure there is no such thing as a repro so just do not want to tear it off.

Got any ideas?

Now I had to go out in the garage twice to see exactly where that piece was/is.  I see where it goes but I don't have them nor have I ever.  Something else to search for.  I would say from what I see in the pics and after a look at the cuda in the garage that it just slides on  . . . didn't see any clips of retainers of any kind.   :dontknow:

Thanks 74 Chall and 4C, it does slide off it just needed some coaxing from a certain direction.  Wasted an hour taking these silly pieces off!!!!!!
