Sun damage to rear pillar interior trim - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

I've got a 2003 camry LE/V6. The interior trim fabric to the right and left of the rear window is curling back on the trim panel away from the glass. This has been happening slowly over a year or so and now has reached a point of requiring repair. I've searched the site, but haven't found anything directly related. Has anyone had similar trouble? These panels appear to be separate from the headliner and the rear window shelf. Does anyone know how these panels come out? If these snap into clips and can be removed, I might be able to match fabric closely enough to be OK. Thanks for any help.

the headliner peeling at that spot is very common.... my car has it and ive seen a lot of gen 5 with it; i havent heard of a fix for it, so i just live with it

as far as the C pillar covers, they are just held in with clips but be carefull cuz i broke some clips on both sides and now they stick out a bit

Thanks for the info. I was concerned about prying them off. Thanks again.
