E430 C Pillar trim removal?

I need to get at the AM antenna booster in the left rear C-Pillar of my 2001 E430. How is the interior trim removed to get to the part?

No reason for it to be any different than my C320. Pull gently around the edges. I started at the top to remove mine. Nothing broke. If the front edge is behind the door welt, pull that forward first.

Thanks for responding. I can get it loose at the top, along the rear window, but the rest is very tight. I'm afraid I'll break something. Almost looks as if I have to remove the seat back to get it out.

Anybody else?

C Pillar Cover

You are correct. The rear seat back most likely will have to be removed which is not very difficult. I neglected to mention it because my car has folding seats which only have to be folded down for access to the covers.

Removing the rear seat cushion and seatback is quite easy but it can be done more easily by two persons, only because it's clumsy, not heavy.
