Default A Pillar Replacement .. Can I do it?

Hi and thanks in advance.

Long story short .. wifes sister borrowed her 2006 GS 430 and put a cigarette burn in the Drivers side A pillar .. I ordered a replacement from the dealer and had it shipped to the house ..

Anyoen know if this is a pop out pop in replacement? I know there is an airbag in that area and dont want to screw it up...

Any info is appreciated.

She should be banned from driving that car, and yes it is easy you have pull a little to get it off its like taking the lower pillar piece off. Remember to keep all those clips or make sure they have all been taken out.
