Removing Sill (1 Viewer)

Anyone has any experience removing illuminating door sills on 16'? Where to start and do's and dont's of it? I am thinking of installing a new set but don't want to screw anything up.

Thanks guys.

I've pulled all my sills to clean under them and run wiring, mine are not illuminated, but they just pop right off, really easy. Get one of those plastic trim prybar kits, makes it even easier, saves your manicures.

Are they held together by any agent or 3M tape that I would need to apply new one afterwards or is it a simple click and stick without anything else?

what he said. However, you need to remove the entire plastic piece. Just held in by clips, not tape or seal. Unplug the connector for the lighted 'Land Cruiser.' Once out you can remove the metal sill piece from the larger plastic piece from behind. I've never done it, but just had mine apart last night running wire and notice there is a tab and you'll need to slide it out from the plastic piece in a very specific way and it will be far easier with the whole thing removed.

My illuminated part has water in it somehow. Going to see if I can get it out and reseal somehow. Looks like the entire plastic piece comes out as well, not just the illuminated par.

Hi, reviving this thread with a question about parts: Anyone seen a source for OEM replacement illuminated door sill? They don't seem to be on the Toyota parts websites. Thanks.
