little screw cover towards the top of it
pop that off to reveal the screw.....take that out...
then pull the top towards the passenger side of the car, and then slide the entire piece towards the back of the car.

you see the little circle at the top of it? take that out with a screwdriver(carefully)
THEN THERE SHOULD BE A BOLT OR SCREW IN THERE. TAKE THAT OUT. sorry, hit caps lock.
then there will be a row of clips.. just gently pull at the trim piece till they pop out.

wow. i guess we all typed it at the same time. DIY much?

Wait... why is this in the classified section?

But ya, it may be a little hard to pull out but you won't break anything so just yank on it.

Good question, why is it in the classifieds? I didn't even see that before. Moved.

Actually, that isn't true. Having had my pillars off, I can tell you the air bag does in fact run behind there. I even have a picture.
