1970 Super Bee Molding Removal

[Jarhead71]

Working on replacing the vinyl top. Not sure how far I have to tear this thing apart to get the back window molding off. Not sure I'm calling the trim/molding the right name. Do I need to pull the back panels, window felt, and windows out to get this molding out? Appreciate the help.

With the panels off you can take the two bolts holding the glass to the quadrant. Then the glass can come out and you can access the screws. Doing it that way you will not change any adjustments. There maybe other ways but I am still pretty sure the panels have to come off.

It looks like this off the car. 4 screws and clips on each car. Need to take off the inside panels and the outer cat whisker to see them.

Awesome! Thank you. Much appreciated.

Some cars will only have 3 clips and screws.

I have the windshield trim and drip rail trim off, but the back window is kicking my butt. You wouldn't happen to have pictures of back window trim off or some advice on removing it? The seal is so gunked up and getting in the way. I've only found one clip so far after two hours of fighting with it. Uhhh

Back window is held in with Butyl "tape", no seal. Same style of spring clips as the front windshield, same tool and technique required to remove.. these will give you an idea where the clips are...

Thank you. Something is definitely different from the front windshield. Maybe the clips are set a bit lower... I'll get the trim off eventually. Beautiful paint on that one. Very much appreciated.

Finally got the back window removed. Time for some metal work. A good portion of the corner metal has rusted away. If anyone has some good pictures of the metal in that area I would greatly appreciate it.
