Re: how do you remove the chrome?
IIRC you have to pry them off and weld the holes in behind them.

Re: how do you remove the chrome?
I had that trim on my truck, but it was gone before I bought it...there are two holes in the bed where it attached...I don't know if it just pops off or there are nuts on the inside...

Re: how do you remove the chrome?
I dont have a sq body but I'd guess that if you finger pry a top corner it will come off if you cant get behind it with a wrench. I'm guessing its just held on with a couple clips.

Re: how do you remove the chrome?
The clips do have bolts on the back. Pull the taillamp lens and housing. The nuts are 3/8", IIRC.

Re: how do you remove the chrome?
Correct, there is a clip that holds that part on. I didn't know it was a bolt,it looked like a rivet to me so I used the grinder and ground the head off. If I remember you can take the piece next to it on the bed and you can see the clip behind it.

If you remove the tail light you can see the screws.
