Hey everybody,
Here is the long over due DIY for the CF B-pillars from SpawnAero. Enjoy the pictures and videos!
Step 1: Remove the OEM B-pillars try not to break the brackets on the back
Step 2: Put all the tabs into their places
Step 3: Apply strips of 3M double sided tape to the back of the clips (3 strips for the top clip and 4 strips for the bottom 2 clips)
Step 4: Align and place the CF B-Pillars ontop of the clips (press down onto the clips)
Step 5: Slowly remove the CF B-Pillar from the door to the back (make sure all the 3M tape stay on the CF B-Pillar)
Step 6: Remove the clips and place them on the CF B-Pillars
Step 7: Apply the Super glue around the base of the clips and cover the 3M all the way to the CF backing (make sure to have a good bead of glue on the CF backing)
Step 8: Let it dry for about 5-10 minutes
Step 9: Plug them in
Step 10: Your Done go Drink a Beer!
Vids:
It is OEM when you pull your stock B-Pillars off you will see them. I lost one of the top ones so I went to the auto store and bought some black duct tape. I folded it in half and taped and trimmed it so that only 3-4mm showed. When the B-Pillar is in place you cant even tell
if you have any questions on the install feel free to ask

Spear I applied the tape extremely light to the clips when I went to align the CF B-Pillar... Once I got that aligned I pressed the B-Pillars somewhat firmly but not too much and peeled the B-pillar like in the video. when that happened the tape stuck to the B-Pillar and not the clip leaving me accurate placement to glue the clips to.
In regards to stock removal... the Stock pieces have built it plastic pieces that allow the clips to lock into. However the openings point toward each other only allowing you to pull the B-Pillar out to remove it. I recommend getting a screw driver *BE CAREFUL* and as you begin to pull the B-Pillar work the clips out. Take your time cause the brackets on the back of the B-Pillars are cheap and will break easily.
I hope that helps
