These roof strips simply push fit into a shaped rubber seat which is wedged into the roof panel - very simple to remove, but, you need to be careful with these.

Yeah that's where they go on the D3. Again, it's from the numberplate lamp holders and creeps back outside. I am guessing plastic screws might stop it happening again.
Poor design though. Although not as bad as the Phaeton doors, they do the same thing where there's some ally brightwork trim bonded to the steel of the door without the proper barrier and the corrosion is just like this, but all over every door.
