Need help installing a-pillar pod!

.. And after much deliberation, I've decided to just go ahead and install my gauges myself. I'm sick of waiting.

I haven't ripped apart anything on the MSP yet, as far as panelling and whatnot. I know on my old car it was rather easy. Panels just popped off and popped back on, nice and simple.

So does anyone want to tell me the easiest/cleanest way to get the a-pillar off? Are there any tricks to it? Should I be pulling anything off the dash before trying to take the a-pillar off, or can I just grab the a-pillar, give it a yank, and off it'll come?

Thanks for the help!
 
to help you run the wires, pop the panel between the dash and the door off.

What they said... my autometer pillar kept falling down at the top (may have been a crappy one from autometer I dunno). I drove around with the visor down so it wouldnt fall all the way off. :) I finally got some 3m tape (velcro should work too). No problems since then.
 
jus some glue i used the strongest stuff walmart had called "the welder" boy it work or jus tryin using some type of rivits or small screws and paint the head of the screw blk or the color of ur pillar!
