Removing the interior trim

I know that I need very few tools for removing the interior trim panels on my 2022 Durango, and that includes PATIENCE... seriously. What I know is I should do everything very very gently. I'm worried about any wiring I might interfere. How can I really SAFELY do this? And is it possible I wrap in hydro-dip? How to prep for that too?

Since this is the only answer I know, hydro-dipping is possible of course :) Just get a degreaser ready and do light sanding, add primer and base coat, then hydro dip! Then finish it off with a clear coat. Just make sure it's extra clean before the hydrodip so you're gonna get a smooth texture!

Agree with this. But to add, it's not necessary but I highly encourage it... do practice on a trim piece you ain't gonna use anymore. If it's your first time to hydro-dip, don't risk going all out.
 
@Banana Hammock everyone has said it all about hydrodipping, but wat people forget to say is that patience is key, no doubt. start by disconnecting the battery to avoid messing with any wiring or airbags for safety. Use plastic trim removal tools and avoid metal ones
 
Good advice! I agree that taking it slow with trim panels is key. A plastic trim tool set really helps avoid scratches or broken clips. Has anyone tried hydro-dipping interior plastics for a long time? I'm curious to know how it holds up in heat and sunlight.
