Wood Trim Removal?

GloryBoBo · Post by **GloryBoBo** » 22 Jul 2010, 11:11

Hi All,

I have a 98 V70 that I purchased a few months ago. Whoever originally purchased it had a wood trim kit installed. 12 years later, it looks horrendous. I know this will probably be a slow and laborious thing to remove, anyone here ever do this? If so, any tips or tricks to share? I assume this will end with "Use Goo - B - Gone".... But you never know.

Thanks for any help.

That would be a seriously time consuming job. And I don't know that what you would end up with would look all that good - I don't know that it is the same gray plastic that base models came with. I'd buy used panels off e-bay. They come up quite a bit. No way would I spend my time trying to get that off.

Oh wait - do you mean an aftermarket kit? Thats' different. Just peel and use goo gone.

I have the same issue with my 98 V70 GLT. now the inside of my car looks like a raccoon had a great time. Will try the goo off.

Usually the glue is dry and will pop right off, then use the goo be gone to clean the rest of what's left
