A-Pillar Corner Trim Replacement

2-door


1. Open the front door.




2. Wrap a flat-tip screwdriver with protective tape, and apply protective tape around the body to prevent damage. Carefully insert a flat-tip screwdriver trim tool next to the upper clip, and detach the clip by prying on the A-pillar corner trim (A). Take care not to scratch the body and related parts.




3. Pull the A-pillar corner trim (A) back by hand to detach remaining lower clips, then remove the trim.
4. Install the trim in the reverse order of removal, and note these items:
- Check if the clips are damaged or stress-whitened, and if necessary, replace them with new ones.
- Push the clip portions into place securely.
