"A" pillar trim removal

Post by deltalimamike »

On a 2015 GT is this just a case of removing the door rubber and pulling the trim or is it more complicated anyone know?

I want to run a cable behind to dash.

Thanks.

Iv done this loads of times, never needed to remove the door rubber, just pull the trim. Only time its different is if there is an airbag which will be clearly marked.

Have either of you two done this on this model?

I've tried and can't remove it.

I'm pulling/levering with as much strength as I dare put on the plastic panel and it's not budging!

Thanks.

No idea why mine doesn't want to budge then.
