How do I remove these? I have seen the two screws on top.... then what? I want to spray some Dinitrol there so mr Red doesn't get hold of my sills..

There's half inch bolts holding them and the finishing strip to the underside - lie on your back, head under the door and look up!

A quick squirt with penetrating fluid a few days before hand on the bolts is a good idea.
On both my cars (latw 1098's) there are five 7/16" nuts and bolts holding the borrom of each sill finisher "U" piece onto the finisher panel and undefloor sill panel in a sandwich.

Haven't yet had any trouble with undoing any bolts on the car, even under the front panel! Hopefully, the day will bring some sun... then I'll remove them to check if there is any Mr R.

Haven't even tightened ours back down fully yet as they were such a pain to get off!! That was pretty typical of our car though!
