I see. By experience there is no way to fit the trim onto the seal without braking it if the window is not removed. the trim goes under the seal and the seal on top of the lip. it's a bit tricky I agree. Not that difficult for a pro or if you DIY you need help of a friend, remove the window, refit the trim and put everything back together.

Correct, you need a fitting kit with clips. Clips brake soon after the screen is in position and you’ll know job is done properly. It’s a 2 man job, and very skilled or bye bye glass and trim.
I was thinking to replace the trim after the glass was installed but no way. I’ll Never touch it again. I’ll have to polish the metal from scratches. With my surprise I have discovered there are no chrome bits in this car, it’s all brushed steel. |

I think the trim piece is the same as yours, this came with the RB: ... I think these are the correct clips: I'll hang on to the trim and clips just in case they come in useful one day. Alan

Looking at that fantastic trim I would suggest to replace the black to this!
Not an easy task but sure it definitely worth 80/100 quid to get it installed!! Go for it. Your amazing car will look even better. |

Unfortunately didn’t think of filming it or take pictures. It would have been great I know. My apologies to you all 😥.
