Thanks for checking this out. It appears to be several (maybe 8) plastic clips. I damaged one trying to remove them so I'm reluctant to get too aggressive and end up with a broken moulding piece on top of a broken light bar. I'll try to play with is some more - just wanted to be sure I was missing something obvious in the WSM.

Hi All. New to the forum and posting in general. I need to replace my rear light bar (2024 model not covered under recall). I the lightbar instructions are easy to find. I can't though find a video or the instructions to remove the "tailgate molding" that covers the top part of the light bar. See attached. I'm looking for instructions from the Workshop Manual , a video, pictures etc. on how to remove the clips/piece. Don't want to create a bigger issue than I currently have.

I have looked at that cover and the snaps that hold it onto the tailgate and cannot see a way to release those snaps. Maybe there is a special tool. They might release if enough pressure is used but they might break as well. I would like to know a good method to remove it. Probably will need to in the future.
