door trim help?
i search and came up w/nothing, so here's my post:
my driver-side door trim (correct me if that's wrong terminology) was "broken" when i got my car, and finally "flew off" while driving home one night cuz i didn't push it down to "secure" it........
whatever
now i have just rubber that also looks like it wants to fly off on the freeway attached to a bare door, and a piece of molding that looks even worse than it did before because the holding-clips (they look like just clips) are broken and there's no trim to help hold it down.
so getting to the question, if i go to a junkyard, how do i pull those pieces off w/o damaging them?? and how to i securely attach the trim once i get a replacement??
*edit*
i have a '95 civic DX coupe
here's a pic to show what i'm talking about
yellow is what i'm calling trim
green is what i'm calling molding

cool, 'preciate the response.
the molding seems to just have white plastic clips holding it down. kinda hard to explain w/o seeing it. maybe i should get pics of my car as it is now. either way, my main concern there is how to pull that molding off w/o breaking those clips -- cuz on my POS door at least 3 of the 4 are already broken so the molding sticks up. i'd hate to have to pay for a part i BROKE at a junkyard, haha.
still looking for assist though! anyone else knows or has an idea, lay it on me!
