Replacing plastic trim on 2007 Dutchman

Has anyone replaced the colored trim on the top of their tab? I just received the replacement trim and am wondering if I have to remove the metal track and screw in the trim. The old trim was defective and came off with just a little tug. I hope to be able to do it myself. Is this possible?

Today I jumped into the new trim. Yes you have to unscrew the aluminum strip, then screw thru the aluminum and the plastic back into the original hole if you can. I did find out that drilling the plastic with a bit helps to get the screw in without striping the screws. Next I have to glue the weatherstripping back on. Not to hard, just time consuming.
