Default A Pillar Trim

Hey all...can anyone give me directions on how to remove the interior "A" pillar trim for the driver side? Also, what color black is the interior? I am having a time trying to determine which part number to order. I am asking specifically about the piece indicated. The pic is not of my car interior...I know it's not black, but mine is.

Held on with clips. Yank it off and it almost feels like you are going to break something.

Almost correct. You didn't mention needing to remove the left side dash cap in order to get to the screw which holds the trim on. It's not just held on with clips. I got it done though.

😂 Rebuilt one that was wrecked and parted out a couple halves of the notorious tornado damaged ones.
