Jesus don't lever that off with a screwdriver you'll damage the glass underneath when i got mine repaired they had to put a new one on held with serious epoxy resin .......

If you are serious about taking them off best heating each panel first then either get a very thin fine strong wire try and get behind it and use a sawing effect.

That's how they took my old one off ..........

Autoglass are coming to replace my cracked front screen on wednesday so may aswell have a go before then!!

the trim is attached to the glass you can fit the the later glass with out the trim to the early cars no problem plus the later glass are ment to have digital aerials, when you get the glass it has all the new trim attached V8 facelift Range Rover Autobiography 22" wheels.

So do you mean you can't remove it on early model. Had a quick peek and the plastic trim would pop off but theres another bit it attaches to. this looks quite intergrated to the window!

So i'd have to buy a later window or can the lower part be removed via heat/ wire etc?

i think you will find that the trim is part of the window, if you thought you could remove it to look like the later one it will not, the window stops short. also you will not get the your side windows out without breaking them,
but if you can get your hands on a pr of new rear quarters they will fit no prob.. V8 facelift Range Rover Autobiography 22" wheels.

I was thinking i could remove it but not now, so thanks for stopping me ruining my side trims. would it be 05+ rear windows i'd be looking for with digital recievers?

it was dropped very very late on with the 06 MY, in preparation for the 07 vehicles - but be careful, the early 06MY have the trim, the late ones do not. What I am getting at is there will be two different part no's for 06.

The late 06 MY's also have the revised tailgate rubber button cover subject of a different post on here.
