Trim Molding Removal
My trim molding needs to come off. What's the secret so I don't mess up the sheet metal? Do I just carefully pry away? It looks like it's held on by little tension wires at least on the bed (and PO's rivets in some places...pita). For the cab, it appears there are some nuts holding things on (not sure if I saw the right thing). Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Trim Molding Removal
Yes, nuts on the cab and front fenders. The rest are clips. Take a look here at a diagram from LMC. The squares on the legend are where the nuts are. I released or cut the clips from the back when I took mine off so I could reuse the trim.
