pillar tape....

[Ratket]

So what is the best way to remove the pillar tape on our trucks? Thanks for all the input guys!!

Remove the outer window belt molding and pull the appliqué off. Not much to it. Clean the residue off with goo gone or some kind of solvent. They always fade and wrinkle and look crappy. I have replaced a ton at work. Just took them off mine and left them off.

I wish mine came ofo that easy. LOL. It was a PITA
Guess since mine was a 2009 it was baked on there pretty good.

Nice videos though.

Heat gun or hair dryer will help soften them up some also.

1 hour in the sun each side, they peeled right off, with goof off to clean up the gunk, the vids helped tremendously, thanks fellas!!

Ah... good to see this as I'm getting ready to fix mine. Some idiot shot a bb into my side pillar. Went in the metal 1/4". just a few inches more would have gotten the window right at head level. I didn't know a bb gun had that much punch! See pics.

Absolutely! And it’s great to see something this old be revived and help someone out!

I agree. Check out my Ram website and you'll see why a little bb hole would wreck my day... I'm fussy about my Ram.
