A-Pillar Trim Panel: Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Lincoln MKX and 2010 Ford Edge. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Install the lower A-pillar trim panel in the instrument panel.
  2. WARNING: A new A-pillar trim panel tether must be installed if the tether is damaged or does not fasten correctly. During a side air curtain deployment the A-pillar trim panel tether helps prevent the trim from striking the occupant. Failure to follow this instruction may result in serious injury to vehicle occupant(s).
  3. Carefully route the A-pillar trim panel tether end through the hole in the A-pillar trim panel.
  4. Install the A-pillar trim panel onto the A-pillar.
  5. Install the door opening weatherstrip.
