Mercedes Sprinter - External Side Panel Trim / Removal & Refit

Episode 8 - External Side Panel Trim / Removal & Refit. My least favourite task to date. Just because the clips / pins are notorious for breaking, and not wanting to budge.

thanks for the vid. Slap some heavy tape on the metal part of that pry tool to help reduce scratches ;)

Extremely helpful mate! Thanks!

Just found this video as I'm just about to do the same, so thank you for all the tips, although I noticed you used white spirit to clean up before sika. I would absolutely recomend against using white spirit for that purpose as it will have the opposite effect leaving an oily residue, you're better off using an alcohol based solent, but sika obviously have their own stuff they would recommend. I appreciate you're not using sika in this case for it's adhesive properties, so it won't matter too much, but I thought it was worth mentioning. Thanks again ,new subscriber here 👍

Hi, It will come off, sure it's not going to be easy, but that's the price to pay for having it sealed versus not.
