Stupid me, I put some stuff in my car and it scratched the trim piece over the a-pillar on the passenger's side. Does anyone know if this is hard to replace? Does it just snap out? Should I invest in a manual first or does the manual even show how to do this?

Your input is needed!

Tug on it starting from the top. There are 2-3 plastic clips holding it in. :)

Not stupid at all :)


The clips will generally get easier to remove after the first time. When re-installing, be sure to try and peer in to make sure they realign easily. I found that it's easier if you try and get the bottom lined up first. Be especially careful with the rubber trim. If it gets under the trim, just get a dull screwdriver and slowly slide the head down under the gasket to get it back out and over the trim.

HTH :)
