Interior A pillar removal

Overlimit · 11-20-2016, 09:37 AM

I've searched google, I've used our forum search. I keep getting led back to the same threads that say "Just google" or "Use the search button!" instead of the actual threads I'm looking for. Maybe I'm not searching good enough, or the information is just not organized clearly enough to be found.

I'm trying to route some cables from my dash camera and radar detector. When removing the A pillar from the driver side interior, do you just pull it? I came across a thread which mentioned that the clips would have to be replaced after removal because they would be damaged but I can't get confirmation of this. There's just not enough information out there that's easily accessible or clear.

Again, how do you remove the interior A pillar on the driver's side without damaging it so that cables may be routed to the fuse box?

Thanks in advance.

PS: If you do say "Just google it!" or "Use the search button!", it would help if you would also provide the thread or source as well so that at a later date if the post is archived or deleted, it may be easily referenced to. I think this would help with future searches by providing a trace.
