Interior B Pillar Replacement

I have a 2003, 325I I need to replace the upper half of the Interior B pillar on the drivers side. I procured the replacement part from Pelican and am now trying to decide if this is something I can do myself. I have already replaced the A pillars. Does anyone have instructions on how to do this?

It should just pop off once you remove the top of the lower cover.

OK, I will ask the inevitable. How do you get the lower cover off? Also, what about the seatbelt that runs through the upper B pillar cover?

It just pops off.

One thing you should know, disconnect the battery and let it sit for at least a half hour if you plan on removing the seat belts.

Once you unbolt the lower part of the belt, you should be able to get it throguh the panel piece.
