    hi
    most moulding strips are stuck on now days so you will have to fit up to it or straight over to it

    the strips like kev says are stuck on pretty firm. some adhesive or tape but many snap fit fixings. basically holes in the door, the strip as sort of tear drop plastic clips on the rear that when pressed hard snap fit into the holes. removing them is very difficult and in most cases the little tear drop bits snap off…
    i was planning on wrapping one of our vehicles recently and wahted to remove these same strips. so i called a coachbuilders we do allot of work for and they told me the above… they said 75% of the time the bits snap off so they just include new ones in the price without even attempting.

    the 106 moulding are held on by small white clips with a trim removing tool (snap on do one ) you can take these off OK mind the first clip at door edge as its not a clip and needs to be slid opposite way after removing clips starting from front i.e on near side remove from left to right and o/s other way
    if you do break some there 10p each from Peugeot and are called hog ring clips
    rich

    this also applies to the 206 and most late Peugeot’s

    now how did i know you were gonna answer this one properly? :lol1:
    while posting i thought either rod gray or rich is gonna post before i post my explanation :lol1: :lol1: :lol1:

    im with you on the end part mate, on our van door at the end its a wee screw you undo and slide back i think, the guy on phone said the clips snap off like i said, but now you have said that he may have meant the cost of the actual clip not the full strip. 😕 😀
