HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!!. D-pillar trim removal.

Help please somebody!!!! I need advice on how to remove my D3's D-pillar upper plastic trim panels. That is the one the 3rd row seatbelt comes out off. I need to replace the seatbelts and have tried prizing out the plastic panel, it wasnt popping out and I was scared of forcing it and breaking a retainer. Does it just pop off, or have to slide up or down??? Advice would be most welcome.

Many thanks Confused

It does just pop off, BUT it is hooked/held also by the lower trim panel (the entire plastic trim which covers the towing fuses and has the small cubby boxes on top, between the d-pillar and c-pillar)

You don't need to remove this trim, at most just loosen a few bolts enough for you to be able to lever things slightly to get the upper d-trim panel off Dennis

Trim clips

Does anyone know the part numbers for the clips that hold this upper panel in place? Richard Zermatt Silver
