Thanks bmrboi2,

That's what I was thinking too.

Hoping replacing them is as simple as sliding these rubber pieces out and sliding new one's in (looks like they are only sold with new roof molding strips)

I don't want to drop the headliner to loosen the rails.

Will report back on what's involved.

Thanks,
John B
