    Removing the A-Pillar cover!

    Hi Guys,

    I need to remove the A-Pillar cover to replace the tweeter but I can't work it out! I don't think it's like the Golf where there is a torx screw behind the airbag symbol.

    Thanks!

    Make sure you pull the top firmly and don't rip out the wires....

    Buy a new set of a-pillar covers like I did, then you don't have to worry about ruining the old set or bending the metal clips. Also, pull the negative cable from the battery so you don't kill yourself when the airbag explodes in your face.

    DO you have a picture of these? Thanks for the tip on the battery cable
