Default Front ABS rain gutter Cover

I need to insert a new rain gutter on the front passenger side. I'm a little hesitant to pop off the A pillar. Ordered some replacement rivets, bc I've seen that the center gets lost in the pillar.

Any suggestions on not removing the A pillar? Or maybe just the top rivet and sliding that gutter corner in? Or cutting the bottom of the gutter and just glueing the piece?

Thanks
Sean

I removed the top rivet in the A pillar and slid the side gutter piece out while I was at Pull-a-part.

If you have to repair the gutter, it's a must to remove the pillar. Just be careful and buy some rivets on eBay.

Watch the Atlantic Brit video. But after you pull it off, the metal clips stick to the pillar. You need to gently remove them and put them back on the plastic peice. Then snapped it back on. Add rivets to secure.
