E53 Shadowline B Pillar Trim Removal
 
Hello All

I have searched high and low and cannot be able to find any instructions on how to remove the outside b pillar shadowline trim. I have found instructions to remove the trim that wraps around the glass and the weather strip at the bottom of the glass. The rectangle pieces that sit on the pillar I cannot find.
Part number 11 in the following link.

RealOEM.com * BMW E53 X5 4.4i Exterior covers / door front

Any help would be much appreciated.

If I'm reading the diagram right items 12,13,15 and 16 (screws/clips) are also associated with that piece. I'm planning on pulling mine and replacing them (they're starting to bubble on the bottom corners) but probably not until sometime next month....I won't be of much help until then unfortunately!

Part number 11 has two screws on it you have to remove all the trims around the glass and bent the rubber trim around that thing you will see two very small crews.

Thanks for the feedback guys. I thought no one had responded until I checked today!

MRBMWX5, I shall have a go tomorrow, and all this because the little plastic clip that holds the weather strip down broke when i removed the strip to do a window regulator and now I need to remove part number 11 to replace the clip.
