So i saw a thread about it on Honda Tech and was wondering if anyone knew how to take off the pillar covers??

everything else looks easy with just bolts.

if you have not seen it here is a link

id like to do this but dont know how to get the pillar covers off

 

WHAT??

That is so badass. I'm thinking snow camo with purple, black, and tan..

 

Yea, I'd like to get a different fabric up there. Stock one is just...thin. I know it's an econo car but I wish honda woulda put just a little bit more into some of the materials. O well.

 

yeah its pretty sick.

so who is going to be the brave one ahahh

 

there has been a couple of del sol guys to do this on ImportAtlanta. It is much easier for them since their roof comes off.

 

HAHAHA Targa FTMFW!

 

ive been wanting to do this for awhile... just waiting for the right fabric

 

Yeah, i am only really waiting for a DIY on how to get it out with out deploying the air bags. i want to re-fabric mine and add insulation between that and the roof. Gets so hot on a NHBP car in the summer

 

:P I just was thinking how simple it was till you mentioned the air bags :/ hrmmm.

 

It shows you in the honda service manual if you have it. Which pillar are you trying to take off??? i dont have a photo copier but i can read it to you. or you can buy the book on helminc.com i use the book a lot doing my inerior stuff. thats pretty much the only reason i got the book.

 

it says to hit the pillar in certain spots to break a clip and it says to replace the clips. but before you do that i would disable the srs just in case.

 

the front pillars. middle and rear

 

true that.

im sure it wont deploy. doesnt it say in the manuel

 

ya says to be familiar with the srs before and where its all located. it doesnt say anything about disabling. be careful....

 

ha sweet. cant wait to get my face blown off.


i will have to check it out from work. maybe one of the techs in the back will know and they can do it for me

 

those pics were posted on honda tech too


if i had a del sol it would be so much easier

 

The bags wont go off. If youre that worried about it disconnect the battery. The only thing Id be worried about is fitting back the plastic pieces so they sit like OEM. They never will. And hope you dont break any clips.

I think Im going to do this. Pshhh, Ill pull it all off and have my moms do it.
Then Ill have her sign it at the corner.

 

HAHA nice.

i dont know what fabric im going to use.

 

well i own an upholstery side business with my bro. we just do it out of our house. its fun and its a money maker. our sewing machine cost us $1500. one car paid it off lol. but ya i would go to helinc.com and buy the book for your fit. i always find myself looking at it so i dont mess up my brand new fit. its worth it. i think its like $80. i also got one for my civic and a prelude.
