Hi all,
I've been looking through the forum but can't find the info I am looking for.
I want to fit a shark fin aerial to my motor but so that I can purchase (advise on the best place would be welcomed) I want to check the connections and length of cable I will need etc.
But how do you remove the c-pillar trim so that I can get to the connection? Just had a go, but doesn't seem to want to give will pulling at it from the top. Gave up as I don't really want to bend or break it!
I've figured out how to pull the roof lining down, but can this bend or crease easy?
I don't want to cause any damage to the trims.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers.
C-Pillar Trim

Re: C-Pillar Trim
If you buy a half decent one the recepion is fine.
I bought mine from BMW (The one from the 5 series). I use it for both radio and GPS reception, it cost £38 unpainted, but came in black the colour of my car so didnt bother.
I get as good if not better reception than the standard one plus full GPS signal for my double din.
I didnt remove the C pillar just held down the roof trim with a bit of wood while i soldered. Went back on perfectly.
