How the hell do you remove this?????

First off Sorry for the blurry photos ( I don't have a macro lense - this is the best I could get )

I removed my a pillar panels and I couldn't get one plug out!

My guess is it's due to the side curtain air bag just below it!

I got the panel out by bending the panel enough to slip it out of the socket!

Any suggestions? I hope the air bags don't deploy?

Cheers

Julian

If youre worried about the airbags disconnect the battery and pull the bag fuse/s. Better to be safe then sorry.

Guys I was pulling with all my might with a panel puller and no luck. The battery is disconnected - I'm just worried if I damage it by accident! It's raining now so I'll have to continue tomorrow!

I've had some of those in the past that in there so good that I literally had to cut them off and push the remaining stub through the backside, then obviously get a replacement for it. If you are lucky enough to get the stubborn ones to pull out, there usually too chewed to rat afterwards to reuse anyhow.
