B-Pillar problem

I recently bout my 03 Cooper S, and I was running the antenna wire for my Sirius radio, along the roof line inside the car. I pulled on the B-Pillar cover thinking that it would pop off, but it did not. I think I bent something behind it. It does not sit snug against the celling. How can I remove the B-Pilar cover so I can straiten it all out. Thanks in advance.

I believe that they "pop" off like most everything else in the car...but there may be some retaining clip like on the A-Pillar...

It probably does not sit right, right now beacuse of those plastic "nails" that are on every interior piece that we have

There are two screws and two plastic prongs that hold the cover in place. My guess is you dislodged the prongs located at the top of the cover. You will need to undo part of the rear trim panel to get access to the screws. Loosen them and make sure the 2 prongs fit into the guides in the roof. Hope this helps.
