c pillar removal

[ridingagain]

i'm trying to get the rear panel off where the jack is. I'm mounting my amp back there. I have the d pillar off and looks like the c pillar also overlaps the rear panel. I have '13 LTZ with power folding seats. Do I just remove the bolt above the seatbelt on c pillar and pop off the trim? Any other bolts I should look for? I don't want to break anything, especially the switch for power folding seats.

Need to remove the D pillar upper trim (where the tweeter is) first. Believe there is one 7mm holding that behind the small cover. Youll need to remove the back sill plate also. Then you remove the entire trim piece. The two pieces (light and dark) come off together.

are the two pieces your referring to (light and dark) the lower part that has the folding seat switch and the upper part that goes to the headliner? Just pull on those two pieces once the upper bolt is removed and they'll come off together? The power seat switch is mounted to the trim piece and nothing screwed to the body so it won't break when I pull on the trim?

Nope. I think there's a 7mm behind the rear seat on the panel. It's been a while since I've taken one out

thanks for the pointers, I got it off. 7mm bolt above seatbelt. Then unbolt seatbelt at the bottom by door opening. Then pry trim and it comes off in one piece (from headliner to door sill). It overlaps the quarter panel so with c pillar and d pillar removed, quarter panel trim can be pulled off.
