Can anyone give any advice on how to remove the A pillar trim pieces. I want to install a wired radar detector and need to remove the trim.
Also want to look at the passenger side as it has been dealer-fixed twice and still creaks and rattles.
Thanks in advance.

I don't remember exactly how I got them off, but they pop right off. Start at the top where the a pillar trim meets the roof. I'm pretty sure I just pulled it off. After you get the first set of clips to pop open, the rest are pretty easy. After all the clips are clear, just pull up and away.

I have heard the clips are somewhat delicate so be careful, but I didn't have any problems at all.
