It should peel right off, just get a hold of one end and pull it away from the truck, at least that's how i took mine off.

Not glued just good friction fit.

Use one of those old lid openers ....like for old paint cans

You can also use your thumbs and fingers if you are tough enough ...it turns upward at top and rearward down back'

Thanks for the replies, what about the piece that runs on the backside of the cab?

Back side of the cab seperating 2 tone paint is held on with plastic clips.

Drip rail trim needs to be "rolled" off from inside to out to prevent damaging it. No glue originally.
