1) How easy are the A pods to remove?
2) Are the OEM ones trashed when they are removed?

I've been eyeing up a dual pod for years, so this may make me finally pull the plug...

Thanks, and yours look amazing...

I'm not Gale, but I can answer your question....

1) Super easy. Just pull on them and they pop loose. There is a plastic tab that will be tethering the pillar to the chassis once it is loose, just reach in with needle nose pliers and turn it 90 degrees to release it. (This will make sense when you see it).

2) Nope.

here's a snap i took a few weeks back. u can see where the tab is located. use an interior tool and pull the very top of the finisher towards the center of the car.

then take a long (quite long) nose pliers and twist the plastic tab. it's there so when the airbag deploys the finisher dont it ur face.



twist (inside red box 90 degrees).
