Loose A-pillar
 
so I popped my passenger side A-pillar off to run a wire and now it keeps on popping off. is there a trick to put it on that I don't know about? when I pop it on, I make sure the cover doesn't catch and sits under the weather strip and that it matches into place with the green clip. are there any other clips that I don't know about?

are you sure its fitted correctly in the bottom near the speakers/dash?

yeah, the weird thing is that I popped off the cover a few months back and it would pop off after a while of driving due to vibrations or something. I didn't think anything of it and just popped it in a few times. probably happened like 3 times over the span of two months. now it just refuses to stay in place. as soon as I pop it in, I hear a click and let go... I can see the cover slowly popping out again and eventually coming off.

however, as I was looking around earlier today, I noticed that there is another pink clip in the middle of the cover. I lined that up first and clicked it into place, then lined up the green clip. it didn't pop off immediately so only time will tell now. hopefully that pink clip was the culprit

weird thing is that I took off the driver side A-pillar too and didn't do anything special when I put it back on. it has never popped off on me, just the passenger side gave me troubles. maybe I just got lucky when I put the driver side cover on and matched it just right
