A Pillar trim removal ?

Should I be able to remove the interior A pillar trim ( I'm thinking airbag problems ) ?

I'm wanting to hard wire a dash cam, and would like to hide cable, or should I just push up behind ?

Thanks

Pop the airbag logo off, screw underneath. Whole trim then pulls off. No airbag issues. Mind you, a (so called) professional installer thought it would be clever to wrap a cable around the curtain airbag

In past installations I've just pushed the cable behind the trim, either at windscreen or door seal sides and never had any issues.

Tip, wrapping parts of the cable with a small bits of foam at various intervals will stop the cable popping out, also stops potential wire rattle.
