Default Removing the A-pillar molding

How the hell do I get this thing off without busting the clips? I need to get it off to get my guage pod installed. Help would be great.

Pull the door molding away then pry it off. Use a flathead as suggested if you cant get to it. Make sure to pull away so that when it gives you won't pull it at an awkward angle that could crack it.

haha, i had a helluva time getting my molding off too when installing my gauges, finally got it off and realized.... i didn't even need to take it off in the first place

i just wedged them between the dash and the molding, then velcro'd the upper end (soon to be screwed!)
