Driving on a highway this weekend in 25-35 mph wind and rain. Heard a muffled "pop" near the windshield and then a low-toned wind whistle. Once I got to my destination I determined that the passenger side exterior A-pilar trim was a little loose, but no amount of force would pop it back in. Did a quick fix with some electrical tape ran along the seam between the trim piece and the windshield, which silenced the noise and confirmed that the trim piece was the culprit.
Saw this thread and it seems like a common problem:

Called my dealer and was advised that my CPO warranty probably wouldn't cover it as it was considered a trim piece. No big deal, as I doubt this is that difficult a job and new fasteners aren't that expensive.
But how do you remove this particular trim piece?
I am guessing it's similar to this video, only without the initial plastic fastener that he removes at the outset?
