How to remove the upper and lower chrome window trim on a W204 Mercedes-Benz

[@SheryarYO]

just in case anyone still needs to know: you don't have to remove the endcaps from the trim to remove them. I just wrapped a microfiber cloth around a flathead, put it under the trim, and pulled up. great video. thanks for the help!

[@JJ92889]

Great video mate. Ordered the pry tools but didn't even use them. The rear door was a bloody pain, just couldn't fit the damn thing in. Took a good half hour just on rear door but all done now. Thanks.

[@conemaher1841]

Thanks man! Appreciate you taking the time to film and explain all this! I’m gonna try this tomorrow weather permitting 😂

[@ActionZ]

thanks for the vid. just found my lower rear window trim bent and was looking to take it off to bend it back. Now I can do it without damaging the thing. thanks

[@andrejansenvanrensburg7596]

Dude you rock for taking the time to share this!!!

[@jvee120]

Thanks for the vid....used it today to paint my trim black....huge help

[@dammaddammad3333]

No tattoos, well done...

[@MichaelBanfield]

thank you so much! much easier to remove it and vinyl wrap it instead of leaving it on the car!

[@ericr5013]

Michael Banfield whys that? I find it easier leaving it on

[@Claus69226]

Thank you very much for the excellent explanation. Danke aus Mannheim, where the first Benz was build a few days ago.. 😉

[@xxhotelcrazyxx]

Thanks, I didn't know my youtube viewers cared about what I was wearing here in the hot ass south. I had to download a cheap free video maker because Windows movie maker didn't support the format the video was shot in. End cap removal only makes pulling the trim up easier to reduce risk of scratching the paint when pulling up.

[@priscillahammons5663]

How do you put the trim back on

[@QuarterZipBro]

Now I know how to fix my Benz.

[@paulwharton1850]

That's great information - Thank you for making the vide.

[@khmergod]

Amazing video. Would watch again.

[@Elsulitarioam]

Thanks.... I need it is for my Honda Accord

[@RMCRetro]

Great video. I don't suppose anyone has the part numbers for OEM replacement? Mine are all mottled and faded.

[@rickl571]

😲 Nicely done man 👏👏👏👍👍👍👍

[@heavynumbertaco]

Thanks for the video.A little tip,I like to use a plastic bondo spreader when I'm removing stuff like this.When you pull on the edge of stuff like this,you know that if you make the slightest mistake and it buckles youre done.When you were pulling the rear I thought it was gonna fold on you.I mean it doenst matter if youre replacing it. I just break the snaps off and put the new one on.if youre reusing them, sliding a bondo spreader under it while you pull really helps.Even the tools designed for this stuff are prone to scratching paint etc.I always slide the spreader and back my tools up with it.Works really well removing dash components,etc,any thing that requires removal without scratching the surrounding area or tweeking what youre removing.

[@29pickles]

Mad props to the first person that can give me the part number for the rear left bottom trim molding. I can't fing find it!!!!

[@priscillahammons5663]

Go to your dealers shop they will look up party number and should give you that then go home and Google it to find it cheaper

[@SinCityAMG]

Thanks for your help!

[@FoxJacker]

[@aznmode1]

Super erklärt. Top.

[@rasmusbangpedersen4907]

Nice video! But why remove this beautiful chrome lists? :D

[@jayhernandez8160]

Do you know where to purchase the upper chrome trim ?

[@alejandroaraya4112]

hi i'm looking for the lock model for the driver door, do you know it? regards,

[@matthulme4746]

Can the rubber seals that come off with the lower window trim be removed aswell? Used this video to remove the trim but struggling to wrap it with the seal still on.

[@xxhotelcrazyxx]

No, they can't be removed

[@maxheadroom1140]

Nice undershirt. Thanks for dressing up for your video. But , what's with the "Created with the..." in the exact center of screen? It was blocking what you were showing. How about at one of the corners maybe? Also, you don't have to remove the endcaps to remove the trim. Other than those few picky items, YOUR VIDEO WAS GREAT!!!!

[@priscillahammons5663]

Stop being a dick

[@IvyLeagueCars]

How do you figure all this stuff out with breaking stuff?

[@xxhotelcrazyxx]

@IvyLeagueCars I have been taking apart things for years. On cars especially, but i work on aircraft for a living

[@dansoarmy9190]

Where can I get the upper chrome strip to buy for my Mercedes’ c205 2012?

[@xxhotelcrazyxx]

You can still purchase them from the dealer

[@adrianpeds]

Where did you get the trim from?

[@rantuliz]

Thanks

[@kimchijiji6490]

would the removed trim still fit as snug if you put it back again?

[@xxhotelcrazyxx]

Kimchijiji yes, no issues

[@heyitsme939]

Why are you fucking up your car? The chrome window trim is seen as a positive. Why would you want to remove it

[@xxhotelcrazyxx]

heyitsme it's not seen as a positive to people like me who don't like chrome.

[@heyitsme939]

xxhotelcrazyxx well that's true, everyone has their own opinion. i think it makes the car look more expensive & classy.

[@northwestgains4452]

xxhotelcrazyxx I hate the chrome and this video really helped me . Thank you and bye bye chrome 😂

[@morningdew9450]

Do you have a Part number of this plasitccaps?

[@xxhotelcrazyxx]

No, I don't sorry

[@zzo28]

The caps are part of trims. ☹️👎 Front trims 60€ x 2 (black) Rear trims 40€ x 2 (black) 200€ complete bottom black trims - Mercedes dealer. The caps is easy to demage if you remove them. They have fu.king small "lock patent" . Its onetime stuff ( I think) I removed that lock with sandpaper on my new caps+trims. I can remove new plastic caps easy without demage now.

[@poulaillerdidier8864]

good joob

[@W204-]

Hey man i have a question I want to put a turbo or a supercharger on my c 300 sport its a 08 can you give me any pointers or ideas where to go

[@cristianromascu6783]

What about the lower door trim?

[@xxhotelcrazyxx]

Cristian Romascu I just removed it completely

[@Titanic19127]

Is this the same for the W211?

[@xxhotelcrazyxx]

I've never done it on a W211 but I'd bet it's the same

[@Titanic19127]

the_aircraft_mechanic I have a speaker where your juror cover is

[@jakob453]

Is it working for w203 facelift? It would be nice if someone can help me.

[@xxhotelcrazyxx]

Yes, it should be the same

[@jakob453]

the_aircraft_mechanic ok, thank you!

[@paidinsleep7215]

does anyone know what that chrome trim part actually called lol

[@JJ92889]

Window trims

[@mikermilla]

Actually.. the lower horizontal pieces are listed as ‘belt moldings’ and the large upper piece is the ‘upper window trim’.

[@dansoarmy9190]

Where can I get the upper window trim to buy for my 2012 c205 Mercedes’?

[@ianrules22]

...........devon your strange

[@Soccertz1]

Are you kidding me with those words right smack dab in the middle of the screen......where everything is centered 🤦🏻‍♀️🤔not smart

[@xxhotelcrazyxx]

So you weren't able to gain anything from my efforts to show you how its done?
