Loose interior piece + rattle (pic)
Hi all
Wondering if anybody else has had the interior trim on the A-pillar come loose. It rattles and is starting to annoy me...
Any advice on how best /cheapest to fix is much appreciated!

take it out and make sure all the clips are still attached.

See attached document from the factory service manual for the removal of this trim.
You probably want to replace that upper clip since it appears to not be holding properly.

The speaker grill is removal, just wedge a credit card between the grill and the dashboard, then pull up, should pop out.

Hi all
This repair was actually pretty easy - the gap when the panel is partly removed is smallish so thin needle-nose pliers are a huge help
Thanks!^
