Video Transcript for Powerbuilt Trim Pad Remover Spec Review

Today, we're going to be taking a look at the Powerbuilt Trim Panel Remover Tool. This is where it comes in handy for all types of fasteners, whether they're plastic or metal. Part number on it is ALL648544. Now, let's take a quick look since we're here in the hatch area. There are few different uses or a few different areas where our Powerbuilt trim remover tool will really come in handy. To start our push pin fasteners here, we'll be able to use the almost similar to a screwdriver edge there.

To pull out the center core, then we can go right in behind it with the panel tool and pull that right out. Another place where it really works out well is being able to get that along the underside of our trim panels themselves, and then you can see all we have to do is kind of tip up on it slightly. Then, we can hear our fasteners popping out of place. We can continue that all the way across to free up that rear panel. Another great aspect. Again, the screwdriver kind of style here, we'll be able to tip that right in there.

Pop off our panel giving us access into the bolts below, if we wanted to remove that or something of that nature. That's going to complete today's look at the Powerbuilt Trim Panel Remover Tool, part number ALL648544. .

The trim pad remover is perfect for easily prying up plastic or metal trim fasteners to safely open up panels in your vehicle. The contoured handle allows easy access to fasteners. The trim pad remover helps to prevent blemishes on surfaces.

by:

The Powerbuilt trim pad remover worked perfectly. I was able to remove all of the plastic fasteners around the entire front end of my vehicle enabling me to to do a necessary upgrade and repair. I purchased this item knowing how difficult it can be to remove the fasteners without damaging them or surrounding parts. I can't recommended this inexpensive tool enough!



by:

works exactly as intended. used to install a trailer wiring harness connector in my outback, and can conveniently use this same tool for getting behind the wheel well mud guard to replace the headlights.



by:

After watching the etrailer video I installed the hitch in about 2 hours. The rear panel popped out and back on easily. I removed the lower bumper panel after removing the main panel, installed the hitch, reinstalled the main bumper panel, cut the subpanel around the hitch and reinstalled it last. I also bought the
Trim Pad Remover Tool to take out the securing clips and it was worth the $10.00. You guys have great videos.



by:

It's a very simple hand tool. Seems well made, and did the job as advertised. It's wise to use such a tool when opening car panels because breaking mounting points can become expensive.



by:

A good tool to have. Some of the trim tabs were very tight which made it a challenge to remove. Overall it made the removal of trim tabs easier.



by:

Installation was a lot easier than I thought. Totally worth the 3 hours not going to the dealership and spend more than a thousand dollars.



by:

Installed myself with help of one friend. Assistance with install using the videows was invaluable. The installation on a brand new vehicle brought praise and comments on how clean the install looked. Great job etrailer.



by:

Wings too thick. Damaged several trim pads during removal. Will grind the wings down next time I need this tool.



by:

Haven't been able to use it yet. UPS delivery was delayed 2 days so I gotten fasteners out with a screwdriver and with a home-shop-made tool. Looking forward to using it later.



by:

All product delivered and installed just as video described. Perfect fit for my vehicle. Thank you!



by:

Items as described, shipped on time with confirmation of shipment and package arrival. Business done correctly. Will be purchasing through etrailer again.



by:

Very helpful and friendly staff. Great installation videos.



by:

Ultimately the product is excellent I am completely satisfied with the end result. I included a few installation tips for those of you who plan to install this by yourself. (1st jpg) The trailer hitch + bumper are heavy and are difficult to hold up and get the bolts started. I stacked up some blocks and scrap wood and threw a towel over it to protect the paint on the hitch. This holds the hitch to the right height and makes it much easier to hold up just the aluminum bumper to get the bolts started. (2nd jpg) Because the hitch has slotted bolt holes it is easy to accidently install it off center. I thought I had it installed right the first time because I measured the outside of the hitch to outside of the aluminum bumper on both sides, but it ended up being installed 3/16 of an inch off to the passenger side which way off of where it needs to be. To correct this I drew a line down the center of the Honda aluminum bumper and made sure the center of the hitch was lined up to the center of aluminum bumper before I tightened the bolts. The outside of the hitch mount may seem off alignment compared to the Honda aluminum bumper, but this doesn't matter. The center of the hitch being dead center to your car is what matters. (3rd jpg) The end result is excellent so I am happy! :-)



by:

The video made installation simple!! I almost bought a hitch from uhaul with installation would of cost me $[XX] total. I just saved around $[XX] and learned the process. I’m not a professional and did it myself in about an hour. Freakin love the hitch and etrailer’s highly competitive pricing and very informative video!



by:

Super finger saver! not just for installing a new hitch but this tool now stays in my car so I can quickly pop the plastic plate off the bumper to use my hide away hitch!



by:

etrailer never let's you down. From the great selection to smooth checkout to comprehensive, video based How To's, they always do a great job



by:

It served it's purpose



by:

Work as described. Wanted to use the proper tool instead of a screwdriver to prevent slipping and scratching the paint.

Worked great! Way better than breaking the tabs trying to get the tabs out with the wrong tool.

@Buzz It's a pretty specialized tool, but when you need it you need it!


by:

Works great for our bicycles. Installation was easy after watching the e-trailer video.



by:

Works great



by:

Highly recommend getting this tool worth your order. It made pulling the clips so much easier!



by:

Easy to order, fast shipping, and fair pricing.

This was a relatively simple and straightforward installation on my 2019 Volvo XC40. The directions were clear, although the black and white pics can be a bit hard to follow. I would add the following points. First, the left plastic rail in the spare tire compartment needs to be removed, and it has an odd hook at the front that is a challenge. It will come with some wiggling. It's equally challenging to put back on. Second, I used the Volvo ground terminal to ground the T-One module. Third, I ran the wire from the module to the positive terminal down through a grommet in the spare tire compartment, then along the brake lines under the car to the battery. This was easy to do with the vehicle on a hoist, but will be more challenging if you don't have access to a hoist. I removed 2 of the protective panels under the car to route the wire. It was fairly straightforward. The product works as advertised and fits very well in the car.

I want to thank "Tom" for his review on 1/10/2019 as it helped me out tremendously to use his same parts list for my own installation on our 2015 Toyota Highlander XLE vehicle. I luckily had a friend from church that had a lift so it made it a lot easier to get all the bolts in place and reassemble all the parts of the vehicle after installation. Here is my parts purchase list from etrailer: The Draw Tite 76156, 18144 plug mounting Bracket, Curt C56217 wiring kit, the ALL648544 Trim Pad Remover, and the Curt I26 Light Tester. You may not need the Trim Pad Remover but it was handy to have so we didn't break the plastic Grommets that hold a lot of the trimmings of the car together. These items also made for a clean look on the installation and this particular hitch (Draw Tite 76156) hides real well behind the bumber. I am very happy with the experience. I will definitely be using etrailer.com in the future.
P.S. definitely watch all the videos attached to this product page. They were very helpful in find your way around the car and tricks for making the installation easier and cleaner.

Works just as required/described.

  • What Hitch and Wiring do You Recommend for a 2019 Toyota Highlander?
    For a great hitch for your 2019 Toyota Highlander, I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver - Class III - 2" # C13394. This hitch comes with the hidden design you are looking for that conceals any bulky crosstubes. It also has a great ground clearance height of 15 inches from the ground, so you do not need to worry about scraping or bottoming out. Compared to our other hitches, the Curt is the best because it comes with a superior gloss outer coat over the base powder coat to provide...

  • Can 12V Source Other than Battery Be Used When Installing Trailer Harness On 2017 Lexus NX
    The problem with attaching the 12V hot wire to any 12V plug or accessory in the vehicle is that the plug you found may be on a circuit with another item in your Lexus. You really want to make sure the wiring harness is on a circuit by itself. That way it protect the vehicle electrical system if anything happens like damage or a short. There is an inline fuse with the # 118652 harness that protects the converter and the wiring. I do not recommend using any 12V source other than the battery...

  • 2019 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk Trailer Brake Controller Installation
    Vehicle passenger compartment plastic trim panels, like the dash panel on your Trailhawk that comes off to give you access to the brake controller port, usually have tabs that fit into slots or metal fasteners, in addition to the visible retaining screw. Once the visible fasteners are removed it may still require a bit of force to release the panel, especially on a brand new vehicle. Often a trim panel tool set like # PT73HJ can help loosen things up. These plastic tools will be less...

    The hitch that has the highest ground clearance that we carry for your 2021 Subaru Outback Wagon is the Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit # DT94YR. The measurement from the ground to the upper inner tube of the receiver is 15-3/4 inches high. Another great thing about the # DT94YR is that it only measures 1-3/4 inches from the end of the receiver tube to the front face of your rear bumper. This is important if you wish to mount accessories to your receiver. With this...

    I do have an option for you but there isn't really a specific tool needed for the Rubber Top Lip Wiper Seal for RV Slide Out part # SR23VR. It features a simple press-on installation so there will be no tool needed for this. That said, I could see how removal would be a bit more challenging, if you just simply pulled up on the top of the seal you would likely tear it so it might help to use a pry tool and lift up at the bottom of the seal where it's pressed onto the flange. In which case,...
