  12. REMOVE FRONT DOOR UPPER WINDOW FRAME MOLDING 
    1. Put a 4 mm (0.16 in.) drill bit into a drill.
    2. Tape the 4 mm (0.16 in.) drill bit without the portion of 5 mm (0.20 in.) from the tip covered.

      HINT:

      Tape the 4 mm (0.16 in.) drill bit to prevent the drill bit from going too deep.

    3. Lightly press the drill against the rivets, drill off the flanges of the rivets, and remove the 7 rivets.
      NOTE:
      • Pressing the drill too firmly will cause the rivet to turn and result in the rivet not being drilled through.
      • Do not pry the rivets with the drill, because this may cause damage to the installation holes of the rivets or the drill bit.
      • Be careful of the drilled rivets as they may become hot.
    4. Using a vacuum cleaner, remove the rivet fragments and shavings from the drilled areas.
    5. Remove the front door upper window frame molding from the door frame.
