How does one remove the upper interior window trim/molding from the rear (side) windows of a 30-31 tudor? I'm not seeing any clips or screws holding it in place.

Thanks

The upper rear corner of the quarter window trim ? Just pull it forward.

If memory serves there’s a tab extending past that corner with a c’sunk wood screw securing it. The upper upholstery panel hides this fastener.

You are absolutely correct. I found 2 tabs (welded) at the front end of the frame and a plate that kind of clamps it into place at the rear. Mine is a Canadian car btw. Once removed, pulling downward freed the trim from the car.

Thanks for the input.

Are these pieces as hard to find as people say? I don't have the driver's side trim.

Yes jeffgies, compatible pieces are quite hard to find on the market these days.
