Default A pillar trim removal

Does anyone have a simple way of removing the A pillar trim piece? The left side one on my '94 has a bit of warpage at the bottom, and I have an excellent one I'd like to replace it with. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!!

Cheers,

Gary - I've done it with mixed success, when I replaced my cracked vinyl with leather. To remove the old is easy - just remove the sunvisor screws on the roof cover, and the screw above the door on the trim piece. After the screws are out, you just pull the A-pillar trim out towards you, lifting up at the same time. Be careful not to scratch the dash. It is held into place by two spring steel clamps. The trick is getting the clamps onto the new part in the correctorientaion. Thus, look carefully at how they came off. I didn't, and one of my trim peices is slightly out of alignment. Not a hard or long job, just a little tricky.
