make sure you de-activate your battery when doing anything containing airbags.

A pillar....

No airbag in there, just three clips.

Pull the rubber door trim away, grasp the top of the trim, pull 'in' towards the center of the car. This will (should) free the top clip, then pull the whole piece 'up'. This should free the other two clips, and the hook at the bottom.

The top clip is a push-in fit, the bottom two are slid in from above.

...as always, the manual says "....replacement is the reverse of removal" :D
