I'm just about ready for paint on my Maverick
and I want to take the trim around the windows off but I don't want to bend it.
I would think it must just pop off but where is the best place to start front and rear?

You should get a trim removal tool, start on the passenger side and hook the clips and pull the molding off. Work slow.

Really? I just got mine at a local auto parts store. Windshield molding removal tool. The one I have was made by Lisle.
