I can’t seem to pry the lower trim off like in the video. I might just be timid, but I don’t want to break anything. Has anyone else done this (successfully)?

I have moisture in one and dust in the other, and it would be great to be able to clean them out.

I have the same problem with attempting to replace passenger side headlight on my 2011 Sprinter. Removing the grille is easy but the metal trim under the headlight assembly is not. Don't know where to start or how much pressure to use. Found this video showing a special tool used to remove metal trim. Can anyone help with finding this tool or with any insight for proper method to remove the metal trim?

BEST. Plastic wedge kit from Harbor freight, occasionally on sale for as low as $4.99

Second best, plastic putty knives from Home Depot while supplies last.
