G'day folks, my Brother in law has a 2005 TD6 and the trim piece running along the lower edge of the rear window is all cracked up and bits falling off from the West Aussie sun! I read in another thread that wasn't specifically on this topic that the guy just removed it and didn't worry replacing it. Maybe this is ok.

Does anyone have experience in replacing this trim WITHOUT replacing the rear window at the same time?

Some photos here. No jokes about Down Under - yes I know they're upside down.

Just pull it off, I have and many others too, just be mindful you may have a line in the glass and paint work where the strip has sat for years.  If it dont work.......burn it!

If the IId tool cant fix it.......burn the FF.

If the FF cant be fixed......buy a Land Cruiser!

If the LC cant be fixed..............................................BUY a horse !!

Have a look at my post:

(Sorry, I don't think I've done the link properly ...)
where I've added photos of the appearance after removing the tatty old trim.
I still haven't bothered replacing it ...
Good luck! It's "bébéchoon", ackcherly, with accents. 'Steve' to my chums.

I just took mine of as there was rust underneath. I have to get the tailgate resprayed at some point but not problems with not having the trim in place There is a difference between knowing your sh!t and knowing you're sh!t
