Re: plastic side moldings

Use a heat gun or dryer to soften the adhesive backing before removing. Dental floss works on factory badging, etc that is glued onto paint, but that's such a long surface I don't know if it would work.

No there aren't many hiding spaces in the truck without removing plastic panelling.

Places

There are several. Use your imagination.

If we told you where they were, they would
not be hiding places.

Re: plastic side moldings

good luck getting that double sided tape off the moldings. I took them off with the intention of respraying them and putting them back on, after 4 hours, cleared the tape off one of them, realized I had three left and said F*** it. rubbing alchol, goo-b-gone, paint-thinner, nothing worked.
