'B' pillar? That's the one in front of the sliding door and is already partly covered by the plastic mouldings. I always carpet trim the rear face with the moulding off and the door seal off so that they both clip over the carpet.
It is not an easy job but on my recent conversions I have trimmed the complete side from roof level 'D' pillar to 'B' pillar top to bottom of the left side with one piece of carpet, cutting and stretching as necessary. The only bit I shy away from with this one piece of carpet is the rear wheel arch which I cover with an extra layer of insulation any way. The right side I do similar but the kitchen fittings make this a much easier piece to fit.

Will have a go tomorrow if it ever stops raining. Not the easiest thing to get a good photo of with the seats in. @rod_vw has a good point about keeping it clean!
Hi Deaky, where did you get the vinyl, is it a good match. I am going to vinyl my multiword but as it is a big area it needs to be a good match
I got it of Amazon, had a few issues as the bit I ordered came folded up which damaged the vinyl surface, I had to get them to re send it on a roll. The company was ukfabricsonline but I cant see that they have any in stock at the moment. Make sure you get one that has some stretch in it.
do you remember the colour, I tried AS Trim, the samples sent where nowhere near what it looked like on the website
No, slide them and recline them forward to make it a bit easier
