You can pull the trim yourself without damaging it, if you want to buy the tool, which is usually around $15-20, and you can get it from just about anywhere that sells tools.

Which tool and how do you get it off? I started pulling one from a salvage car using incorrect tools and it broke halfway through. The one on my car is in very poor shape so I'd like to find one without missing pieces and cracks all over, but I don't want to ruin it if I can prevent it. Any that have been in the sun will be pretty much dry rotted by now.

Hmm...I don't think it's remotely that bad of a leak. All the moisture collects on the inside of the trunk lid and that's it. There's also a piece of trim loose that needs to be reattached. I found that every item I had behind my trunk lid stayed perfectly dry...

Okay, I'm going to give better details on this. The inside of the trunk lid has water that is puddled up on it. The carpet in my trunk is totally dry but the items UNDER the trunk lid got damaged. Any item that was around the trunk lid or behind it (closer to the cabin) is totally dry. I had a couple tools, tire iron and my speakers that don't have a drop of moisture on them. I'm getting the window trim taken off hopefully next weekend to get things checked out.
