Hey guys! Long time lurker, first time poster here. I am looking at having my wheels and roof rails painted on my '16 Touring but am having no luck removing the plastic caps at the front and rear of the roof rails.
I have searched all over this forum and Google to no avail with no tips or any guides with instructions. I have looked at both the roof rail and cross bar installation PDFs and can see there is a clip in the middle but there is really no way to disengage this clip. I do notice on the back caps there is a spot I may be able to use a flat head screw driver to pry it off but I do not want to break them.
Has anyone successfully removed these caps without damage and if so I would love some tips. Thanks!
