Thanks for the replies I've had it all out and painted all the pillars and roof lining now :)

The plastic circle on the A pillars was so flush it didn't look removable which was confusing me as I couldn't see any other place a screw could be.

You need to remove the plastic circle at the top of the A pillar trim- you can use a small flat blade screwdriver to do this. There is a T25 torx under there and the rest is held on with the white trim clips that pull out. Once the screw is out, pull the piece of trim sharply away from the A pillar and then up to get it from behind the side of the dash.

Screw will be a torx bit.

To get them off pull door rubber out of the way and gently pull it out. Also I'd be more tempted to cover them with a suede like fabric to reduce glare,plus it looks better

Also I should add, I'm aware of the circles at the top of the pillars and that's where I'd asume some the screws are under but the plastic circles don't seem to be movable to get to screw?

As the title says, how do you remove the A pillar without breaking anything can't see any clear way to get it off don't want to just rip it off and break clips.
