Follow the rear pillar trim installation procedure carefully; improper installation could cause the side curtain airbag to deploy improperly and possibly cause injury.
Put on gloves to protect your hands.
When removing components, use the trim tools or equivalent.
Take care not to scratch the trim and the panels.
The upper clip in the rear pillar trim (A) consists of a resin grommet (B) and a metal pin (C). The grommet expanded with the pin secures it to the body panel (D). The grommet must be replaced with a new one when the trim is reinstalled.
