Default Help! - P38 A-Pillar interior trim removal

It's raining today and water is leaking into the interior from the top of the passenger side A-Pillar. Since the leak could be from various places, I need to remove the A-Pillar trim to gain access.

Does anybody know how to do this? I could really use some help before I go pulling on things (and possibly breaking them).

Thanks!

I know I put P38 in the title, but in case you are wondering it is a 1996 4.6HSE

Well, it will come off eventually lol. Just work it off slowly and be careful, its very easy to break. You might also have to remove the headliner to gain access to the drain tubes, depending on where the leak is coming from.

easy.. peel back the rubber lining on the piller and undo the 3 or 4 screws as shown below


then seal it up with some silicon.

cheers, Paul.

Thats interesting Paul. I never knew those existed. That probably would have really helped when I had to remove my A-pillar while redoing the head liner. I'm surprised nobody else pointed that out on all the other forums and tutorials I read. Hmm... I was really wondering why the clips broke when i took it off.
