To prevent the side curtain airbag from deploying and damaging the pillar trim, the overlap between the headliner and pillar trim must be less then 0.3
in. (8 mm). To check the overlap, do this:
1. Install the headliner (A) and the pillar trim (B).
2. Using masking tape on the headliner, mark the upper edge of each pillar trim.
3. Remove the pillar trim, and measure the headliner overlap.
-
If the overlap is less than 0.3 in. (8 mm), remove the tape, and install the pillar trim.
-
If the overlap is more than 0.3 in. (8 mm), go to step 4.
4. Carefully trim the headliner with a utility knife, reducing the overlap to less than 0.3 in. (8 mm).
5. Remove the tape, and install the pillar trim.
