    Need to remove the passenger-side 'A' pillar trim to run some wires for a dashcam, want to bring them up from under the dash, and then under the 'A' pillar trim on the passenger side and then tucked in to the headliner. There's enough flex in the headliner that I think I can tuck the wire in with no issue, but the plastic trim on the pillar isn't very forgiving. I assume it's two bolts under the handle covers and some plastic tabs, but I don't have my manuals with me at the moment.

    Can someone pls confirm the procedure for me and are there any considerations with the air bag?

    Thanks!

    Remove the two bolts from the handle and then it just pops off but it does have a couple of “fingers “ at the bottom so pull up and out. As far as running the wires, just make sure you don’t run them in front of the air bag or tie them to it.
