Hi guys ,

Had a quick search about and didnt really find much info on this.

Does anyone know of a post that explains removing the a-pillar or can someone explain how it comes off?

Thanks,

Jason

The screw seems to be behind the airbag plastic panel/sign???? If so, how do you remove the sign?

Thanks for the help. I have a buzz behind my a-pillar trim and have been wondering how difficult it would be to remove the trim.
