Default A Pillar Interior Trim Removal

As I've got a new DAB headunit I'm wanting to run a DAB window aerial into the top left hand side of the windscreen. Seems I need to have the A pillar interior trim off to do so. Does anyone know how this trim comes off and if removing this will give me enough access to run the cable behind the dash?

Any help from an experienced type would be gratefully received.

I did do a search but couldn't find anything specific to running cables to this area.

The vertical sections of the A pillar trim just pull off. You'll need to unscrew the sun visors and then just pull.

For the centre one, you need to pop the plastic cover off the interior lights and there are two screws in there. Unscrew them and then pull the horizontal trim section off.

Simples!

Top answer. Thanks.

Do you know if, with the A Pillar Trim off, there's enough room to run a cable down behind the dash?

Yes, plenty of room. I've done this recently and it was all straight forward.
