You need to remove the access panel on the inside of the tailgate and have the window up. Once you do that you will see a series of about 10 studs with nuts on them coming from the outside of the tailgate. Remove the nts and the trim will fall off. If your going to reuse it simply tape it up before you remove the nuts or just have someone hold it for you.

Thanks for the help, I was hoping it was just glued on. I guess I have to reuse it otherwise I gotta fill in the holes....$$

Thanks again, I taped it up and removed it just like you said :metal:

Cool.
