    If it is like and 850, I think you will find a torx screw just in from the door edge, remove it and gently slide the thing forwards I think.

    Pretty sure that the later cars rubbing strips are just stuck on.

    Clip push system IIRC, IPD suggest their "bone" tool to pry them off.

    I'd being considering something similar on the S60(52 plate) but have also been thinking about whether the later chrome trims would fit - anybody tried it or know if it's possible?
