Removal Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 GMC Sierra, 2003 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2003 Chevrolet Silverado, and 2003 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Use the J 25070  in order to heat the molding and the surrounding sheet metal to 82-93°C (180-200°F).
  2. Remove the roof joint molding.
    • Use a flat bladed tool in order to pry off the molding between the sealer and the joint. Use pliers or a similar tool in order to handle the hot molding and pull the molding loose. The molding and the sealer should come off in 1 piece.
    • Do not damage the paint on the cab.
  3. Clean the joint in order to remove any remaining sealer. Sealer could interfere with the left fit of the replacement molding.
