B: Installation
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2013 Subaru Forester. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
- Do not reuse the pillar trim upper clips. The securing strength of the clips is reduced once they are removed from the pillar trim. Reuse might result in the pillar trim falling off. Always use new clips when installing the pillar trim.
- Before installing the pillar trim, check the condition of the protective fabric (white) of the curtain airbags. Replace the curtain airbag module assembly with a new module if the protective fabric is damaged (if the pink fabric of the airbag module can be seen).
- Remove the remaining clips from the vehicle body.
- Prepare new clips and install the front pillar trim.
- Install the front pillar trim.
- Install each part in the reverse order of removal.
