When we took mine off we just kind of pried up the edges and slid it it off one direction. It preserved some of the clips but most of them broke, we found a bunch of replacements at the junk yard though, so that works too.

I've been out of town for five days and I miss my car! Lol, I've been cruisin in a Ford Hybrid. Hybrid Ford

Lol I believe you're referencing something different as well. He needed to get the trim that runs vertical along the back of window on the door. Not the one that runs horizontal on the bottom.

I can't wait till you come home tonight. I miss your car too!

so a suspension question.
would an asr 24mm rear sway and PIC performance coilovers in 10/14k spring rates be overkill?

Depends what you are trying to do, those are some pretty high rates for a street car.

I take it you will be using the EF/DA kit to mount it? Im sure the rates will be fine, with 14k in the rear and the sway it will be pretty *** happy.

Iv got 10k/6k which is 560/336 on my ksports on my 4 door. Not sure if I want that 560 on the EF, since its dual duty.

With the higer rates in the rear, it will want to come out on you more.

I think that bar is over kill... i run the st rear and on the stiffest setting which i believe is 22mm it whips the rear out with 550lb spring rates.

Ummmm, on an ef/ed, this could be overkill.

I ran 10k front/ 12k rear for years with no sway because I simply didn't need it. The car would rotate VERY well...for my skill level. Once I got faster and started running r*compounds I found the car pushing more and more. Now I run 11k front/ 11k rear with an ST rear sway bar. Will be trying this set-up out for the first time in a couple weeks.

Run the PICs on track first...then see if you need a rear sway or not.
