CM C5 Rocker Panel Removal

HI, does anyone know the trick on getting a rocker panel off with out damaging it. I would guess i have to heat it up somehow to get the glue loose. Thanks

HI there,
Rocker panel, do you mean the door sill covering, going from just behind the front fender to the rear wheel??
This is below the door.
Its bonded and has to be cut off.
Allthebest, c4c5

Hi, yes exactly. When you say cut off you mean i will need to replace with new also do you know if there is an aftermarket company with these pieces. Thanks

HI there,
No, I do not know of anyone with aftermarket pieces.
A web search may turn up something.
