I need to take the exterior quarter glass trim off my Charger. There's one phillips head screw I can see, but that's all. I think there's a screw I have to get to from inside the car. Is this correct? Any other scews I can't see?

If so please inform. =]

Are you talking about the boomerang shaped trim on a 73 or 74 Hardtop?  If so, there is one screw outside (the obvious one),  2 (I think) inside, you need to remove the upper interior panel to get to them.  Then theres a tricky speed nut you have to get from behind the sail panel? (going off memory here).  Dont forget the speed nut or you will break it!

the two ones inside are hidden by the weatherstrip. need to remove upper panel and weatherstrip

to remove the speed nut ( 3/8" ) need to remove sail panel.

to remove sail panel SAFE need to remove rear glass and headliner moldings, also bench to get lower panel and then rear package tray LOL... everthing stated hides parts of sail panel.

Of course if you are sure that you can get sail panel removed without remove everything around, just pulling out, then go for it, but BECAREFULL sail panels are tipiccaly brittle and any false movement could broke it.
