Removing inside pillars of a Tesla model 3

[Blackdout]

Does anyone know how to remove the rear side pillars for a Tesla model 3 so the back glass can be exposed more for easier installation?

Are these just held on with clips? Can I just pop them out with a pry tool?

Yes just pull the from the top toward the middle of the car. It’s held in by clips and a bungee cord so don’t pull to far. Once out take the cord off of the panel. There’s also another plastic retainer that’s made to keep the panel in place once the airbags deploy. That you need a 90 degree pick. It has four retaining clips two on top and two on the bottom. Just pull and pick the clips up to get it out of the sheet metal. Once out grab the panel and pull towards the front of the car. This will make the install a breeze. I usually tape all the modules to prevent slip from getting in as there a lot of slip with a glass this big. Use microfiber rope at the bottom of the glass to soak up excess moisture.

Hey Bro how Do you guys do the front windshield? I know the modules are on the driver side. Any moisture and their toast. I won’t tint the sunroof or front windshield. I once I did the sunroof and the screen started freaking out. Lucky for me once dried it went away but definitely scared me.
