Default remove rear window trim? how?

The right rear side window on my 2nd gen (03) 2 door seems to be leaking. How do I get the exterior trim off to see if the glass is sealed properly?

Thanks for the reply, but what do those instructions have to do with the EXTERIOR trim?

By removing the interior trim and using a garden hose on the outside of the window, you can narrow down where the water is coming in through. Looking at it from the outside (if you even can) won't tell you the whole picture.

Sorry, just my impression of what you needed. I looked to see if you had a photo gallery or even a pic of your truck and couldn't find one.
I thought that you were referring to the stationairy side glass, which is sealed in place with urethane and I don't know how you would see that from the exterior, so I thought you meant INTERIOR trim.
