w202 facelift door sills

[DITTRICH]

A quick stupid question!

The sills are plastic and seem quite flexible.
I assume they can be removed/levered off without breaking them.
Yet I'm nervous of applying pressure and breaking them.
Is there a "special" technique?
How are they "fixed" there?

Reason: my satnav box hides underneath the passenger side floor trim and the sill needs to come off in order to access the satnav unit.

Thanks

Les

You probably reoved this already, but all you do is hold both sides of the sill and yank directly up. When I say both sides I mean that one hand has to be inside the car and the other on the outside.

They are just clipped in an as eundaddy said, give them a firm yank upwards and they will unclip. It might seem as you are going to break them with tat much force but you, thats how they come off.
