To apply a new trim to the door pillars, first remove the window scraper seal and clean the underlying surface to prevent debris from getting under the new adhesives; also remove the seal from the glass lower edge that interferes with the pillar edges.

Then, peel off the old trim and thoroughly clean the surface of any adhesive residue (it is recommended to use anti-silicone or thinner).

Once cleaning is complete, secure the top of the new strip with masking tape after orienting it correctly; remove the protective film from the adhesive and press it onto the pillar using a suitable spatula to ensure the vinyl adheres perfectly to the pillar, avoiding air bubbles and/or wrinkles.

Fold the edges inwards and remove the outer protective film.

Finally, reposition the seals.
