Liftgate to tailgate seal clips

[ronmc1954]

Jeff; a while back I bought a new liftgate to tailgate seal, well now I am working on the liftgate and I want to take the seal off. Can the tee clips be taken out without breaking? I don't remember their shape. If I break them can I get just the clips?

I'm not 100% sure if replacement clips are available. When I remove trim clips and such I use a tool specifically designed for use on these style clips. The closest looking thing I could find is here - osborne combination ripping tool and tack puller - upholstery tools Although I use ones made by snap-on and mac tools.

Thanks Jeff, I guess I figured I would break them when I removed them.
I will give it a try
