to get the trims off, open the doors and peel off the rubber weatherstripping, when thats out of the way you'll see a million little sheet metal screws. Take these out and the trim peices will come off along with the metal weatherstriping forms. Its very easy to do.

I've never taken apart the wagon trims. but i presume it would be identical, up to the back door that is, then it may be held on with clips or maybe more sheet metal screws, dont know. have a go at it and fill us in
