Is this process the same on a 1985 300TD wagon? I need to replace one (if not all) of my brushes and there is next to no information about this ANYWHERE. ANY help is greatly appreciated.
Also, just so I understand what you did:
1. Lower window all the way
2. remove trim piece (how? Just yank it?)
3. after this, the brush should just come out because it's held on by the same clips that hold the outer trim piece.
4. put in new one, clip it together with the outer trim piece.
Correct?

The thing that fools you is that you can see some plastic spacers from underneath the trim and these are NOT the clips. They keep the trim from squeaking.
BTW: My car's original color (917G) is a little greener and not as bright as it is currently painted. Looks pretty sky blue now. One of these days I'll have to remove this trim again and get it repainted the correct color.
