I don't think so, or, if they are, only about 1/2" or less. To get the B pillar trims off, remove the furflex from the appropriate bit of both door openings, unbolt and remove the seatbelt and carefully tease off the bits wrapped and glued round the door gaps. A little heat, ie hairdryer, helps here. And that's it!
