Take off my A pillers to see what I can do to them.....since There's an airbag logo on both of them...(side curtain airbags)....anybody ever encounter this?

Maybe I can take them off without harming anything?

i'm not a pro, but just to be safe i would say take out the fuses just so to make sure they don't go off in your face

that means there are airbags there I wouldn't recommend installing anything on the pillars because they'll end up in the side of your head upon deployment of the air bags!

it really depends on the car, I have speake pods on the A-pillars of my beetle and I watched as many crash test videos as could to see how the a-pillars rect in and accident. The bettle pushes them towards the windshield so it shouldn't make any difference in a collision. Most cars, the pillars are screwed onto the car right where that "airbg" symbol is..it's usually a crew cap and some airbags exit downward, those are the one's you do not want to play with as far as adding speaker pods go.
