Nylon or metal trim tools — which do I need?

Nylon tools are safe on painted and soft-touch surfaces and cover most interior jobs. Metal tools give more leverage on stubborn clips and mouldings; use them with a cloth or tape to protect the finish.

Which tool do I use to hide a dash cam cable?

A flat nylon wedge or the pointed tip of a trim tool lets you tuck the cable into the headlining and A-pillar trim in minutes. Avoid running cables near curtain airbags; follow the existing loom route where possible.

Can I reuse the plastic clips I remove?

Often, if you pull them straight out with clip pliers rather than prising at an angle. Clips do get brittle with age, so a small assortment of replacement clips is worth keeping in the kit.
