remove the negitive terminal off the battery and pull the airbag fuse if your worried. i never removed the A pillar but im sure just like any other car that they are just held in my clips.

you dont have to pull the airbag fuse if you dont want. i was just mentioning that if you wanted to take extra precaution. removing the negative terminal from the battery is all you really need.
