Hi all, i'm in the process of upgrading my sound system on the 05' RX330. There's a stock tweeter on the Apillar and i want to install some new one in the same location, but there's suppose to be some airbags behind the trim panel..is there any tricks into getting the trim off without setting the airbags off? thanks for the help

The airbags won't go off from just removing the trim. Just remove any bolts holding the pillar on (look for hidden access covers) and pull until it pops off. Some have bolts, others just clips depending on vehicle. Just don't use anything sharp that might puncture your airbag during removal, and if you change or add any wiring watch that it doesn't interfere with the airbag.

If you have trim panels in the a-pillar that say "SRS" or "airbag", they usually pop off, and there's a screw behind them.
