Removing Some Parts of Our Car Located on the Roof

Model: BMW Serie 5 E39 - Years 1995-2003
Part: Body

In this video, check the removal of some parts of our car, specifically the roof. To remove these roof parts, use a screwdriver to gently pry off the plastic trim. Once one piece is detached, the rest will come off easily. After completing this operation, ensure that all the supports holding this trim are intact and functional; otherwise, in case of rain, water could seep into the small cracks. In the worst case, it could enter through the windshield and cause significant damage to the body.
