Q: How to remove Chevrons (3 vertical chrome trim pieces) on a 1968

Regarding the 3 vertical chrome trim pieces below the rear windows, I’m assuming I have to remove the inside panels to get to their fasteners. Is their anything I should know in advance regarding them? Do I need to remove the seats? I’m gonna reuse them as they are in real good condition. Are they clipped, bolted, or what? Can I reuse the fasteners?

A: For a coupe, you dont need to remove anything except the flow thru vents at the 1/4 panel to get to the chevrons. Use a 1/4 drive socket/ratchet and carefully back off the nuts as so you dont break the studs off. Check and see what style your chevrons are. They had 2 types early and late 1968 one style has smaller studs than the other. Just curious as to when they changed.
