I got seat covers for my accord lx 2005 from overseas. I am having trouble putting on covers for back seat pillers. i.e the two back cushion pillers (which are next to rear doors).
Can someone please point me to place where I can remove them and reinstall them after putting on covers. Will really appreciate any help.

Special Tools Required
KTC trim tool set SOJATP2014
4-door-C-pillar - With Side Curtain Airbags ('04-06 models)
SRS components are located in this area. Review the SRS component locations and the precautions and procedures before performing repairs or service.

NOTE:

Put on gloves to protect your hands.

Take care not to bend or scratch the trim and panels.

Use the appropriate tool from the KTC trim tool set to avoid damage when prying components.

Remove these items:

Rear seat side bolster

Rear door opening trim, as needed

Remove the C-pillar trim (A).

-1 Pry the C-pillar cap (B) out until it is stopped by the hooks (C). Release the hooks and pull the cap out of the grommet (D). Discard the cap.
-2 Pull the C-pillar trim back by hand to detach the clips, then remove the trim.

Install the trim in the reverse order of removal, and note these items:

Check the clips for damage or stress-whitening, and replace them with new ones.

Do not reuse the C-pillar cap; always replace it.

If the side curtain airbag has deployed, replace the C-pillar trim with new one.

To prevent the side curtain airbag from accidentally deploying, removed trim pieces should be checked for these kinds of damage:

- Any cracks, deformations, or press-whitenings in the C-pillar trim (A)

- Any cracks, or press-whitenings in the grommet and clip seating surfaces (B)

- Bent or broken grommet (C)

Replace any damaged parts with new ones.

Make sure the top of the trim overlaps with the headliner correctly.

Push the clips into place securely.

And welcome to the forum! :wave:

wow ! thanks for details !! doesn't look like a job for noob like me.. I was hoping it would be simple (like releasing some hidden catch/bolt) but seems like it is more complext then I thought..

It's not that hard...my friend has never worked on his car before and he's done it. Same process, take out the seat and pull on the covers...
