If you want, just pull away on the a pillar to remove. Its clipped in place with a few clips. It might also be easier to "roll" the pillar away from the body, it'll unclip itself.
Alstann has it right. The factory A-pillar is tethered to the metal behind allowing it to pop out one inch when the airbag in the headliner is activated. The custom A-Pillar functions exactly the same way because it is a factory pillar with a pod moulded to it and uses the same mounting hardware.
