Yeah, take it all off :lol:

Halfords do double sided Trim Tape which should be good enough for holding it on - its the same stuff Vaux used to put them on in the first place! Failing that, if you want the strip on permanently try some tigerseal or suchlike sealant.

also, make sure the surface on the moulding is free of sticky residue and dirt, as well as the car. Double sided panel tape is awesome, but useless if the surfaces arnt flat and clean.
