Has anyone tackled removing trim pieces yet, specifically around the A-pillar? I'm trying to neatly run some wires for a dashcam, but I'm having trouble getting a good path for the cables along the headliner.
I tried following Honda's instructions for A-pillar removal, but I'm either losing my mind in this heat or those instructions are a bit of a nightmare. I'm starting to think I might just take it to a professional like Car Toys – maybe I'm getting too old for this DIY stuff!
 
If you’re not trying to fully remove the trim, you could try using a trim tool to just slightly pop the edge near the headliner. I’ve seen people run cables for dashcams that way without messing with the whole pillar. Could save you a trip to Car Toys, and some sanity.

Man, those A-pillar trims are such trouble sometimes! If you’ve got a steady hand and some patience, you can usually handle it with a trim tool. Maybe give it one more try before you throw in the towel and let the pros take over.
 
Running wires for a dashcam can be tricky.. I’d double-check the clips, Honda trim can be stubborn. Car Toys might save you the headache!
 
Oh yeah, dash cam installations been there, done that, got the t-shirt and the aching back. It was so much trouble on my Prologue that I just threw in the towel and went back to driving without witnesses. :ROFLMAO:
 
Trim removal can be risky business, especialy with delicate A-pillar trim. I've seen some horror stories online about people breaking clips and damaging their headliners. It's easy to do if you don't know what you're doing. Maybe try using some plastic trim removal tools? They're designed to minimize damage. And yeah, I get the heat thing. I've tried to work on my car in the heat before, and it's miserable. If you're not feeling confident, definitely take it to Car Toys. They'll have the right tools and experience to get it done without damagng anything.
